Way, way south.
I looked but didn't find anything disallowing us from removing a borrower (husband) from a consumer loan for a second home that the co-borrower (wife) wants to keep. She qualifies on her own without the husband, but I wasn't sure if I missed anything obscure that would prevent the bank from just doing a change in terms agreement that removes him from the loan. Appreciate any thoughts, thanks.

You mean they have requested that the husband be released from liability on the loan? That is totally a bank decision.

Yes, they just want him removed from the loan without having to do a refi.

It is a pretty standard request, especially in divorce situations. As long as the lender is happy with the credit qualifications of the remaining party, it is a pretty simple process. Your legal counsel should be able to provide you a standard form.
