Is quick claim a way to remove co-borrower from title?

I have been divorced since Nov. 04. My ex and I still own the home. In Nov. 06 she filed bankruptcy. Will a Quit Claim Deed keep her from coming back later and try to take any of the equity. When she filed bankruptcy she stopped paying her part and there was no equity in the house. I don't want to pay refinance charges but I don't want her to steal from me.

Hi Jon,

You can use a quitclaim deed to remove her name from the title to the property. After signing over the quitclaim deed, she will give up her rights to the property and this will prevent her from having any rights to the property later.

We are 4 people from the Uk owning 2 properties in Florida, all 4 people are on the deeds to both properties.
We now wish to split, with each couple taking one house each, we need to take 2 names off each.
Can we use the quit claim deed for this also how do we get thing moving.

Hello Junie,

what is the difference between having your name on the title and/or having your name on the deed. I am co-owner of a house that I no longer live in. The other owner cannot afford to buy me out at this time but I do not want responsibility for the house, mortgage or otherwise. How can I protect my "share" of the equity in the house until I've been paid my share of the equity?

Hello Joaner,

If you are on the deed or the title, that helps you to get ownership rights on the property and also protects your share of the equity.

If you are not on the mortgage note, then you are not financially responsible for that.

my parents need to take out a loan and the house is rolled into the loan, the remainder of their mortgage was put into the loan as well as their credit card debt...the lender, is telling us that with my mothers income it is not enough to get her approved and that she should put me and my brother down as additional income, seeing as we live in the house, accept rent as aonther form of income...i asked the lender if i am put on the loan as paying rent, how can i get off of the loan, i would not be a borrower, i would simply be put down as extra income, he said if i want to get off the loan papers, i oculd fill out a quit claim deed to release my name from the papers. is this all true? becuz i see here that i must pass along my interest to a grantee but i simply want to remove myself of the loan, so how could i go about that? is the quit claim viable for this? and will it affect me down the road? thanks!

Hi Beth,

Welcome to the forum.

Are you on the deed? As far as I know an owner of the property can quitclaim. So if you are on the deed you are also an owner of the property and can quitclaim but that will only transfer the property. It will not release you from the mortgage.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,
Larry

Hello,
I have seveal questions regarding Quit Claims
I own 20% of a property in NV and would like to quit claim the property into an newly formed LLC. All the other investors are on the existing title and loan. Do all the investors need to sign the quit claim?
Does the Quit claim form need to be notarized in the state (NV,AZ)that the property exists or can I get the quit claims notorized in the state I live (CA)? Will I be exemt from transfer taxes in this situation?
The main reason to Quit claim is for asset protection.

I am in the process of a died in lieu of foreclosure with a lender on a property that I purchased in 2005. My wife is not on the loan for that property. We are now living in another home which is very valuable and are both on the loan for this house. I am considering signing the home that we wish to keep over to my wife to protect us from a deficiency judgement in the event that the lender on the foreclosed property tries to come after MY assets. My thinking is that if I sign the home we live in to my wife and she is not on the loan for the foreclosed home they cannot come after any of her assets - i.e. our current home. Is this possible?

Hi Rob,

Welcome to the forum.

If you quitclaim a property just before filing deed in lieu or foreclosure process, then it may be considered as a fraudulent conveyance. As far as I know lender don't ask for Deficiency Judgment if they accept the DIL.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,

My sister and I have a house together that my father left us. She wants out from under the house. She does not live in it, and the house is a financial burden to her. I do not live in the house either.
I want the house, she is thinking of filing bankruptcy on her end.
Would a quit claim deed work in this situation?

Hi Richard,

Welcome to the forum.

If she quitclaim before filing BK, it may be considered as a fraudulent conveyance. So I think you can buy her out. That means you will pay her of for her share of the equity in the property and she will transfer her share of property to you.

Best of luck,
Larry.
