I am about to sign a quit claim deed from a property that I just close to a LLC company own by me and my business partner, we plan to pay everything 50 50. Do I have to do something that legally obligates him to pay his half of the mortgage? I am under the impression that I will be the sole responsible for the mortgage.

Thanks

Hi Fdo,

Welcome to the forums.

That's not the right impression that you have. Once you sign the quit claim, it will no be your sole responsibility to pay down the mortgage.

Your business partner has to pay off his part of the loan balance. You do not have to take any legal step and in case your partner is aware of it, do inform him.

Thanks,

Sara

If your business partner is co-borrower on the loan then it is his duty to continue paying his equal share of mortgage payments. He should understand that non-payments can result in defaults and have bad affect on credit score.

My son's xwife wants out of the mortgage for their house. She has offered to take a lump sum of money and quit claim the house to him. Will there be any Florida penalties/taxes/charges associated with doing this? The bank has already agreed to drop her name from the mortgage.

Hi Brenda,

If the bank has also agreed to remove her name from the mortgage then there should not be any problem with the title transfer.

There will be normal expenses associated with hiring an attorney and quit claim deed recording fees.

Hi Brenda,

For transferring the property in your son's name with a quitclaim deed, his ex-wife may have to pay the gift tax associated with property transfer. But your son should not worry as he will not have to make such tax payments. The charges that he will have to pay is for hiring the attorney a and recording the quitclaim deed.

I QUIT CLAIMED MY PROPERTY FROM MY COMPANY TO MY NAME FOR REFINANCING PURPOSES, THEN QUIT CLAIM BACK TO MY NAME. I RECEIVED TWO AUDIT ASSESSMENT TOTAL OF $4500.00 ON THE SAME PROPERTY. IS THERE ANY WAY TO NEGOTIATE THIS WITH THE STATE?

Hi Elaine,

As far as I know, joint tenancies may be revoked by any of the parties at any point of time. So there are chances that your mother will be able to revoke it. However, I would suggest you take the advice of a lawyer to be on the safer side.

Thanks,

If I transfer our home to my wife only, would the property be subject to any liens from unsecured creditors with debt in my name only?

Is there now a tax on the recording of a quit claim deed now in the state of florida other than a nominal recording fee? In this case the husband is giving up his right to any claim of title. He is not named on the mortage. I am in duval county florida.

Hi jerrell,

You might have to pay documentary stamp taxes for recording the deed. However, it's better to get in touch with the county recorder's office as they can tell you exactly what taxes you need to pay at the time of recording the deed.

Hi olynn,

Adding your son to the title to your house will not be difficult. All you need is a quitclaim deed form which is required to be signed by you as the grantor, notarized and recorded with the county recorder's office. To see a sample quitclaim deed for the state of Florida, you can visit the below mentioned page:
