There are no regulations that govern the completion of the URLA. Even the GSEs provide little guidance. An applicant likely does not know any State law or requirement of how they might be required to be listed on a warranty deed. If John Doe intends to title the property in just his name, he would complete it as just John Doe and indicate solely. If multiple people of title is would be tenants in entirety, joint tenants, etc. This is really only applicable on purchase transactions. What goes on a warranty deed and deed of trust is a legal issue.
In most States, even a community property State like Texas, a married individual does not need a spousal joinder to purchase property.
