yes, there is also a presumption that title is held as the title says it
is. Pat Green, whose firm is also a family law firm, actually explained
the issues he could from the fact pattern in a previous email in this email
chain.

The way the hypothetical is worded seems to suggest that the question is whether the property is separate or community property. If separate and she files alone, there doesn't seem to be any reason the Trustee can reach that property and vice versa.

Wife needs to file Ch7. Real property was transferred from a third party trust to husband as his sole and separate property in 2015. Wife simultaneously executed a deed quitclaiming to husband as his sole and separate property. The house is paid in full and has significant non-exempt equity. If the wife files chapter 7, is the house safe or subject to the trustee?

Shannon,
What was the relationship of the third party to H? Was this an inheritance
or a purchase?

Dear Shannon,
It sounds like a fraudulent transfer that will be avoidable by a Chapter 7
Trustee. You might find the reasoning in In re Beverly, 374 B.R. 221
(B.A.P. 9th Cir. 2007) to apply, mutatis mutandis.
All the best,
Nick
