Hi lucitta,

You can contact the county recorder's office and file an affidavit of heirship at the county clerk's office. This will make you the sole owner of the property.

Thanks

My mother died in Febuary 2010. I am married with three children. My sister is keeping the cash and the house my parents bought her. I need to change the title to my name and I want to add the name of my son (19 years old). If I die I want my Son to have the house. I have called different title companies and they said they can no longer do this type of Title change. Who do I go to for help or can I do this myself?
I don't have to pay inheritance tax - correct?

Hi Paradie!

Welcome to forums!

If the property is in your mother's name, then you will have to transfer it in your name by filing an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office. Once the property is transferred in your name, then you should sign a quitclaim deed and add your son to the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

My mother-in-law recently passed away leaving her home to her three adult children equally. The house is completely paid off. We are purchasing the house from my husband's brother and sister privately. There will be no mortgage on the home at all. How do we go about having my mother-in-law's name removed from the title to the home and having our names put on?

Thanks!

Hi CrazyBasketLady,

All the heirs will have to file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office in order to remove their mother's name from the property deed. Once her name is removed from the deed, then the other heirs can sign a warranty deed and transfer the property to you and your husband.

Thanks

My fiance and I bought a home 5 years ago. I am currently on title with him though not on the loan. He just re-fied and I had to do a quitclaim only to him to satisfy VA. It will record in his name only in a few days. We want to put me back on deed as it was originally. What is the verbage I use in the forms that assessor's office told me I need? I do know that he has to get his signature notorized and then go get it recorded.

Hi Gayle,

Your fiance needs to sign a quitclaim deed in order to add your name back to the property title. You can contact an attorney and he will help you draft the deed and add your name back to the deed.

Hello, my husband and I own a home in CA. The deed is joint tenants and states its community property...we would like to change the deed to only state my husbands name. How do I go about doing that? what is the procedure? what documents need to be filled out and recorded? thank you

Welcome jenna,

You can sign a quitclaim deed and transfer your share of the property to your husband. I think even an inter-spousal transfer deed will be a good option for you. You should contact a California based attorney and take his opinion in this regard.

1997 I had no credit and my brother said he would allow his name on the deed and I would live there and make all payments which I did. Without my knowledge he refinanced 2 times taking 107,000.00 in equity out of my house. when I was down at Stanford medical hospital he set up 3rd refi and charged me 8% of new loan amount to take his name off deed and let mine be put on with my two daughter"s. They where put on so we could qualify for new lloan amount and pay him his 28,000 dollars. My question is since I made all tax and mortgage payments and our verbal agreement was this would be my house, is there anything I can do to get this money back fom him? I just recently found out what he did to me. I am broken hearted he would do this to me. The mortgage in 97 was 118k and 800 monmthly, it jumped after first refi which I didnt know about- up to 175k and 1200 monthly, then again 230k refi and 1480 payments and this last time while I was in Standford having brain tumor surgery he refied for 325k and 3180 monthly payments just so he could get another 30k from me... we have made these payments since 2007 but I'm now in forclosure status and my friend looked into my houses past and found out all of this BS. this is a stupid story from a stupid person who allowed it to happen-what can I do?

Hi joe!

Welcome to forums!

Verbal agreements don't matter. The person whose name is on the property deed will be considered as the owner of the property. You should try and get the property transferred in your name. It will be better if you could contact a real estate attorney and he will further help you in this regard.

Feel free to ask if you’ve further queries.
