Yes in case of divorce she can claim title over the said house. If you don't trust then it's better not to add her name

don’t buy property in joint names 

2) if your wife is willing to invest 50 per cent of her money then only buy property in joint names 

3) in US in event of divorce wife can claim 50 per share in property bought after marriage 

4) better stay on rent 

Hi

Going by contents of your post, it can be assumed that, you may face litigation in future, as such, it is always better not to have your wife's name in the transaction.

Going forward she will claim 50% share in the same.

Laws of land (US) will give 50% share.  Therefore, follow her style and get the transaction completed in your name only, collate and retain all documents / information pertaining to transaction viz., loan application, agreement, your source of funding etc.

Yes, at the time of divorce she is entitled for 50% share in the house.

1. If your wife is a co-owner then she will be entitled to 50% share in the property which she can cull out by filing a suit for partition.

2. Whether it is good or bad has to be decided by you.

to avoid any future legal complications, get the property registered in your name only,

however, she can make claim to the properties registered in your name also,

1. In India wife has no share in the property of husband . However once you add name of your wife in the title deed of the property then automatically your wife would become its half share holder of the property.

2. So if you have discord at home with your wife which may lead to dissolution of marriage then it is not advisable to buy property in joint name of your wife.

3. So do as advised above. In India wife is not entitled to maintenance if she has enough income in which property she owns in her name is not of much consequence. 

1.  In view of existing differences between the couple, IT would be highly unwise to purchase ANY property jointly with wifes name included, more so specifically since while selling /mortgaging /transferring /gifting /whatever .... you would be at the gross mercy of Wife's consent & signatures for the same.

2. Further "IF" relations were to sour up to its logical conclusion (say Divorce), THEN you stand to lose the property even upto the extent of 75%.

No. It is always good to have property in your own name.  It is advised generally to add name of wife to get rebate in tax or court fee stamp. But it's always good to pay more tax or court fee rather creating 50% title in the name of wife during your life time.

1. yes you will face result in case of divorce. She will claim her share in the property 

2. If she says that she has not property then you may go ahead and disclose the said fact before the court.

1. Why did your USA Lawyer asked you to buy the property in USA  jointly with your wife's name?

2. In some States of USA, properties bought by the husband with his own fund after the marriage is also equally divided with his wife in while passing decree of divorce.  So, if you buy it jointly with his name as co-owner, surely, she will get 50% of the said nproperty.

3. Make sure that you can buy properties, be it in USA or in India, in the name of your parents or close relatives, if possible.

4. In India, wife will not get any right on her husband's properties during his lfetime but can ask for attachment of the property as collateral security towards alimony/maintenance i.e. in case of your failure to pay the maintenance as directed by the Court, the property can be let out or sold for arranging to pay her the maintenance.

Dont buy property in joint. wife can make a claim if she can prove her equity in the property. 

Do not name anything in your wife's name. The money is yours. Tell her to give half the amount for the house.

Regards 

Even if you add your wife's name as co owner of the property in India, her name can be removed later onin case of any disputes between the two of you by way of filing a suit for declaration to declare you as the sole owner of the property on the basis of the payment made by you.

The properties or assets bought post marriage can be shared between both the spouses is the law of that country when applying for divorce. 

If she is smartly securing her properties in India, you may also adopt such smart ideas by buying the assets in India on your mother's name or your father's name.

The property in your name in US will always pose a danger of she getting entitled to half share post divorce.

The wife shall have equal share in the property in that case.

See can claim her share in the property. Therefore it should be registered in your own name.
