Like 0 Dislike 0 In our State of FL Disolution of Marriage, my former husband signed the divorce decree, agreeing to grant me sole ownership of our home. 3 yrs. later, when I noticed that his name was still on the deed, he refused to sign a quit-claim deed. The divorce court will not help me, as it was a (non-contested) mutual agreement Disolution of Marriage decree, not a contested one. After the divorce, the court will only hear problems with a contested divorce. My former husband contributed no money to buy home. I used solely my money for down payment, mortgage, insurance and property taxes. My name is the only name on property insurance, taxes and mortgage. When I wish to sell this home or if I die, how will my heirs gain complete ownership?

You may also face issues if you wish to sell off the property. I would suggest you to buy out your former husband by offering him a certain sum of money and ask him to transfer ownership to you. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial success
