If she merely wants to rid herself of ownership you could suggest that she place an ad in Redweek's Bargain Resales to give it away and offer to pay closing cost:

Also, depending on your mother-in-law's age .... if she isn't planning on purchasing something on credit or finding a job, then her credit rating shouldn't make a difference one way or the other.
