Hi. I was wondering if my dad would be able to sign his house over to my husband and I. Or would it be possible to buy my father's home for what he owes on it? He's going through hard times right now, and the house has almost went to foreclosure. He says he wants to put the house on the market the beginning of the year, but I want it. How could we work it out so that my husband and I would be able to keep it?

Hi and welcome to the forum. You can just purchase it from him. You set the price at whatever you want (as long as it appraises for at least that much), and structure it so he walks away from closing with nothing or very little, as long as he's ok with that.

Welcome Kitten.

You can pay off the mortgage company or refinance the mortgage on your name and your father can quitclaim the property to you. Thus you can save the property and also your father's credit. So talk to the mortgage company and inform them that you going to pay them off or willing to refinance the mortgage on your name and take the necessary steps. By the way, is your father willing to quitclaim the property to you? How much equity does your father have on the property?

I was just wondering if it is possible to sign over a home like a car? If it is possible to "take over payments" like when you sign over a title to a car?

Welcome Guest.

You should use a quitclaim deed to transfer the property. But the quitclaim deed will not transfer the mortgage. So the grantee should refinance the mortgage on his/her name.

Let me know if you have any further queries.

Hi Marsha,

Your aunt can sign a quitclaim deed and give away the property to you. Sample quitclaim deed forms are available online however consulting an attorney and drafting a deed from him will be better. Once the deed is filled out, you will have to notarize it and record it at the county recorder's office.

Thanks

their seems to be increased companies that are advertizing that persons can find homes that are in pre-foreclosure and all you would have to do is take over the homeowners' mortgage payment with no hassles or a CREDIT check. is this real.

Hi garry,

There are a lot of properties which are being foreclosed upon these days due to non-payment of mortgage. However, I don't think one can purchase them without credit check. In order to assume the mortgage, you should have good income and excellent credit.

As the property is located in MO, you'll have to use a quitclaim deed form of MO to transfer the property to your mother. You can either use sample quitclaim deed forms available online or can take an attorney's help to draft the deed.

Hi j jones!

Welcome to forums!

You should sign a quitclaim deed in your mother's name in order to transfer the property to her. Once the deed is filled out, get it notarized and recorded at the county recorder's office.

Hi margaret!

Welcome to forums!

You'll have to purchase the property from a seller and transfer it in your name first. If the property has a loan on it, then you will have to refinance it in your name. Then you can find a tenant and rent off the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
