Quit Claim Tax implications.
My partner and I bought a house in CA for 250K, the value of the house now is 150k. I would like to quit claim and remove my name from owner ship.
Are there any taxes that I owe other than the prop tax, the loan is in my partners name.
Since it is a loss are there any gift tax involved?
Will I be able to deduct the loses from this prop...I have been carrying over the yearly loss as deductions/depreciation? |

Though you quitclaim and remove your name from the property deed, you won't be liable for taxes. If you transfer the property as a gift to your partner, then you would be liable for gift taxes. However, there are some exemptions in case of gift taxes. To know about it, check out the given page:

| Thanks, in the above case the property value is less than the mortgage on the prop, so it has a loss rather than a gain. In terms of gift tax this will a -ve how does the taxes work out. |

| if you will be doing a quit claim deed in name of your friend, he will be gaining 25K & therefore may be asked to pay capital gain tax. apart from that he has to pay property tax as a single owner of property |
