I got married & I need to change my name on the deed. Can this be done by a quick claim at a title company?
Also, if I put my husband's name on the deed too, how should that be worded. Greg AND Janice or Greg or Janice? I've heard that if you use "and", it would be difficult to close the estate in the even that one or the other dies.

Hi Janice!

Welcome to forums!

You can use a quitclaim deed to change your name as well as add your husband's name to the property deed. You will have to write your maiden name as the grantor of the property whereas your married name and your husband's name as the grantee to the property. As far as filling out the deed is concerned, you'll have to contact a real estate attorney in this regard.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
