Does a quitclaim override the title to a home where there are 2 people on the title, at the mortgage company, and the recorder's office shows four people on a quitclaim. One of the person on the title is deceased.

Hi jamie,

Welcome to the forum.

Is it that one of the owners is deceased and the other owner quitclaimed the property to four people?

To answer your question........ Yes through a quitclaim deed you can change the title. Title shows the legal ownership of the property. So as the quitclaim deed changes the ownership it also changes the property.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,
Larry

Welcome jamie.

I don't get your question. So explain it a bit more.

Regarding title I would agree with Larry that you can change the title through quitclaim deed.

a deed is only part of the title. To get the whole title, obtain a title report from a title company.

After my grandfather died, my grandmother refinanced her home and put my Aunt on as a joint tenancy. Make a long story short, one of my other Aunts had my grandmother to sign a quitclaim deed 3 weeks after my grandpa pasted away. The quit cliam deed was put into My grandmas four daughters name. I am assuming it deeded the estate over to the four girls. My Aunt who's name is on as a joint tenancy wants to buy the home, but the other Aunt who had my grandma sign a quitclaim deed will not sign off so I was wondering if quitcliam deed is any good since the one Aunt is on as a joint tenancy?

Hi jamie,

Welcome back.

Your grandmother can only quitclaim her share of the property. So I think your aunt is also an owner of the property with your grandma’s four daughters. So your aunt can only buy out if your grandmas four daughters willing for that.

Hope it is clear. If you have any further questions feel free to ask Smile

Best of luck,
Larry
