Question regarding quitclaim deed.

I'm living with boyfriend, and paid him a certain amount
of money for living arrangement so I would get sole ownership
of the house we share in case of his demise.

I was made the "remainder subject" (in state of Florida).
Does that make me the grantee of a quitclaim deed he signed ?
It is also called a "gift deed."

We are having personal issues right now, can he change
the grantee of the house without my knowledge, in other words
can he change his WILL give the house over
to his children, so I'm left without the house ?

Hi bsure,

You will have to check out the gift deed properly in order to know whether your name is mentioned in the deed as a grantee. If you are the grantee to the property, then your boyfriend can't remove you from the property title without your permission. As far as your boyfriend's will is concerned, he can definitely change it and give his share of the property to someone else.

I would suggest you to contact an attorney who can help you in understanding the gift deed and your rights towards the property.

Thanks
