Quit Claim Deed

Guest

In my original dissolution judgment (1996) regarding my house, it stated: until we reach an agreement, buy each other out OR our son turns 18, we will remain joint tenants in common. In 1997 we reached an agreement and ex decided to Quit Claim the property to me and I reduced his child support by $100 p/mo. My son just turned 18 and he is saying I need to sell the house... but he signed it over to me and it was notarized & recorded. I have the original. Can he still have an interest in my property? I'm the only one who's paid the mortgage all these years and he's behind in child support. Please help! (this is in California)

Hi,

If your ex-husband transferred the property to you by signing a quitclaim deed, he will not be able to force you to sell off the property. He will not have any interest in the property. You are the sole owner of the property. If he forces you to do so, consult an attorney and file a lawsuit against him.

Thanks
