Hi Colleen,
Welcome to MortgageFit Forums.
Was the deed recorded at the County's Register of Deed Office? If it was recorded then, you can get a certified copy of the original deed from their office. You can obtain it either in person or through mail.
If you face problems in doing so or the deed was not recorded then contact a real estate attorney or the Title Insurance Co. or the Real Estate Office to prepare a new deed.
God bless you.

I think it's better to contact an attorney and do as per his suggestions in this case. At least I would have done that as I am not so comfortable with the legal matters. _________________ Need help choosing the right loan? Get free consultation from community lenders/consultant |

Hi teri!
I understand that you are quite upset over the whole issue. But in my opinion, you should wait for the bank to send the form. See what happens after you fill in the form. If your issue is resolved then its good and in case its not resolved then you can contact a lawyer |

My partner has been living with me for three years rent free because I own the house with no morgage. My friend feels that she has no rights to the house if something were to happen to me. Plus I want her to feel the house is as much hers as it is mine. I wish to share the deed of the house with her so that she doesn't feel that she's loosing money and time invested on working on the house. I'm concerned about putting her on the deed and then her leaving me. What are my rights then? Can I put her on the deed as owning a percentage (ex:20%) so that if she were to leave, she would be able to get back what she put into the house? Can a deed be written up any way that both parties are comfortable with? I want to share the house with her and have a great relationship. How do people work this legally out?
Thank you so much for any time and convenience towards this matter.

Hi Tuxx
You can add your friend to the deed of the property with the help of a quitclaim deed. With the help of the deed you can also give her only 20% of the property ownership. You will get sample deed forms online but I would suggest you to take the help of an attorney. He will be able to draft the deed in a better way.
Thanks. _________________ Good is the Enemy of Great. |

Hi,
To Guest,
The property will be transferred to the person whose name is mentioned in the will. Then that person can transfer the property to anyone he/she wishes to.
To sui,
Congratulations! It's great to hear that you paid off the mortgage. The lender will give you a mortgage release certificate as a proof of the fact that you have paid it off.
To jasonbdls,
You can ask your wife to add your name to the property deed with the help of a quitclaim deed. If something happens to her, the property will go to that person whose name is mentioned in her will. If there is no will, then you can file an affidavit of heirship to transfer the property in your name.
Thanks. |

Post subject: Deed with father |
|
|
| Since December 2007, I share a deed for property with my father, which is worded "tenants in common" and not "joint tenants with rights of survivorship". Recently, my father had a serious health issue requiring he go to an assisted living facility -- he is now refusing treatment and wants to take me off of the deed. Can he legally do this since I technically own half of the house? |
