Hi

As you're the one on the mortgage, you can claim the deductions on your annual tax return. But since your brother is not on the mortgage he isn't responsible for the repayment of the loan. So, though he's been making the mortgage payments he'll not be able to claim the tax deductions.

tony, you can do what you want to do as far as filing a tax return. is it appropriate to "do what you want to do"? no, not necessarily. but people do strange things with their tax returns all the time (not file at all, take deductions that aren't truy allowed, etc.).

Thanks a for the response. The thing is I want my brother to be able to claim his portion of the tax claim. I am just not sure if the IRS will give him problem. Or if he is violate any law by claiming the tax. He is actually the one who pay the mortgage, and have the Cancel check to prove that. It's just that his credit is bad, and can't get the loan himself. That's why I put my name in the help him out. Thanks a lot for your response.

Hi Tony,

I think your brother will not be able to claim the tax deductions because he is not legally responsible for the loan. If he had signed on the mortgage note, he would have been responsible for the loan and could have claimed the tax deductions. But as George said, people do strange things with their tax returns. Your brother may be able claim the tax deductions. The best thing is to discuss this with a tax consultant.

Thanks,

Jerry

If your name is on the title you co-own the property. You are legally entitled to a share of the house. Your boyfriend cannot make you move out of the house. You can definitely claim a certain amount of money from him before you sign over your interests in the property. You can contact a lawyer. He will be able to guide you further regarding this.

well..."your boyfriend cannot make you move out of the house"...kind of makes me wonder about all these relationships that falter and one of the partners "makes" the other move out. how does that work? you mean if my wife messes around on me i can't make her leave? that's not fair!

believe me, savior, i know what you're referring to; i'm just playing.

the advice of getting a lawyer involved is good advice, dee. i hope you follow it.

i won't say anything about the name, db.

how in the world did your father get a mortgage on a home he doesn't own? in the real world that's called an invalid mortgage. a property cannot be mortgaged without the consent of all owners. you need to fight this somehow.

and if you quit claim to your nephew, that won't sit very well with the lender, but that's a whole other issue.

you need to retain counsel to figure out this mortgage situation.

PostPosted: Thu Jul 30, 2009 11:40 am    Post subject: Effects of Foreclosure or Short Sale on a Person Not on the

My question involves a foreclosure in the State of: Maryland

My boyfriend at the time purchased a condo and included me on the title. We had broken up and he has since defaulted on the loan. I am not on the loan but only the title.

Recently I received Foreclosure papers on the property addressed with both of our names. There is also a lien place against the property in both of our names by the condo association.

I am very concerned. Am I held responsible for the condo fees? Will the foreclosure also be on my credit report if I am not on the mortgage. How will this affect me?

I also understand from his sales agent that he is has been approved for a short sale and received a sales contract but the bank is reviewing the file. How come a Foreclosure is still taking place?

Please help!
