Hello Jo-Ann,

You have to use the form of Florida as the timeshare is located in Florida.

The deed also has to be recorded at the county office where the property is located.

my husband co-signed for my daughter and her husband to buy a house. Due to a massive mold problem they were never able to live there. She took out a second morgage to purchase a modular home. We have been paying the morgage and she is paying for the second morgage. She now would like to take her name off the first morgage. Would her second morgage have to be paid off immediately?

Hi Valerie,

I think your daughter has to pay off the second mortgage first in order to remove her name from the first.

Is she there on the title?

Hi james,

Welcome to this forum.

You can add her in the deed by simply signing a quitclaim deed. You should notarize the deed and record it in the county recorder office. You should consult with an attorney who will help you in the process.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Larry

Hi I am in the middle of a divorce and heres the story, (short version). About a year ago my soon to be ex grandfather sold us his property for 1.00 and the same day his (my soon to be ex's) mother had us sign a quick claim deed incase something happened us she wouldn't have to probate it. However the younger brother of my ex heard and became jealous and talked their mother my ex's and his . to go file the quick claim deed into her name., and she did.
Now the grandfather hass passed away and 5 months later my ex's mother passed away as well. I checked on the deed and the mother had actually put the deed back into the grandfathers name like it was originally before he sold it to us why I do not know. My ex's younger brother was power of attorney and no will has surfaced. I know there is one because I took care of the garandparents for 10 years and I took them to their attorney several times over the will and they stated several times they wanted us to have the home...Any how w actually lived in the home for 5 months untill we came home 1 day and all the doors were pad locked and a note saying the home was no longer ours that she filed the quick claim deed that we did sign, but only incase we died.

Hi Mary,

Welcome to this forum.

Now if once quitclaim is done, you should have made it valid by notarizing and recording the deed in the county recorder’s office. If you have done that your ex’s mother could not quitclaim again and again.

You have said that they have sold the house to you. Then you should have legal documents of that. You can show those documents to the court. I would suggest you to consult with an attorney regarding this matter.

Thanks,
Larry

When I was granted a divorce about three years ago, my ex-husband signed a quit claim deed because we had purchased a Mobile Home together. Now that I have paid off the lienholder and have received the title, I want to have his name removed. Do he have to sign the title or is the Quit Claim Deed sufficient to have his name removed? I live in North Carolina if that a factor.

Hi Sheila,

Welcome to this forum.

If your ex-husband has signed a quitclaim deed, that means he has transferred his share of property to you. So you are the sole owner of that property.

By the way, have you notarized the deed and record it in your county recorder office?

Thanks,
Larry

Hi Sheila,

If the deed is notarized and recorded then this is a valid deed, and you husband has quit claimed. Then you are the sole owner of the property unless and until he has life estate on the quitclaim deed. So I would like to know if there is life estate on his name?

IF there is no life estate on his name, then the title is only on your name. His name has already removed his name from the title by signing the quitclaim deed. So you need not to remove it once again.

Thanks,
Larry

My husband and I will be married for 2 years the end of January, when we married he has a single family home that he and his deceased wife purchased together in the state of Maryland in 1996. The title and deed is in his name and his deceased wife name. My husband cannot affor to keep paying the mortgage due to bad investments and EXTREMELY POOR money management, so every 3-6 months I've had to bail him out of almost losing his home to the bank "Foreclosure". He is in the same predicament now and he needs over 10 thousand dollars this time. I told him that I will not bail him out of this mess again unless he signs a "Quit Claim Deed" to add my name to the deed of this house. He states that because I have some credit issues, if he adds my name to the deed and goes to get refinanced once he gets thing back in order financially, no mortgage company will refinance him if my name is on the deed. Is this correct, and do you advise me to keep dumping my savings into his home without my name being on the deed?

No, not at all, don't end up your savings simply by helping your husband, because he's not making a misuse of your money actually and he's not bothered.

What you need to do here is:

Talk to your husband and explain him clearly that you don't want to finish off with your savings.

First of all, ask him to remove his deceased wife's name from the title – that can be done by filing an affidavit of heirship by which he'll own the property entirely, then he can transfer a certain portion, say half of it to you so that both of your names will be on the title.

You speak of credit issues, well how bad is your credit? Let me know, it will be better for me to suggest options which you can go for.

If you have a decent payment history with a 600 score, I think you can refinance but yes, rates can be a bit higher. But there's no way out. If you help your husband, you have do it this way or else, you go on depleting your savings for one who doesn't realize your contribution and in the end you lose what you'd kept aside for years!

Regards,

Jessica

Do NOT sign the quitclaim deed!! Get a lawyer or consult one. You are entitled to a share in the condo but if you sign a quitclaim deed you relinquish all claims. Since you were married for 8 years chances are you are entitled to 1/2 of the equity in the condo or more. This will be determined in the marital settlement when you get divorced.
If you can not afford a lawyer go to the court house and file for divorce. The clerks will help you fill our the paperwork. It only cost $225.00 in MA to file. Then you can talk to the lawyer of the day for free for advice.
