My husband mother took her name off the title of the house and put my husband name on it. So the house was in his father's name and his name. When his father died he willed over his 50% to my husband and his sister. The father also willed over another house to my husband & his sister. Both houses were paid in full. They agreed that she would get the house that he willed over 50/50. This house she sold and bought another house. My husband remodeled the house we are living in and now owes 130,000 on it. I want to help him pay it off. So I told him before he does this he needs to get his sister to sign a quick claim deed releasing her 25%. She is not willing to do this. I habve already been paing on the mortgage. What are my rights to the house if something happens to my husband?

As the sister's name is mentioned on the property deed, she will remain one of the owners of the property. You cannot force your husband's sister to sign a quitclaim deed in his favor and transfer the property. If your name is not mentioned on the property deed, you won't have any ownership rights to the property. Feel free to ask if you've further queries. Sussane

Many people use MortgageFit as a learning tool for their own circumstances, and it's puzzling to many when they see what seems to be the identical circumstance but a different person as the author.
