Hello,
I have a friend who prior to getting married purchased a home.. After she got married she added her new husbands name to the home... Now he no longer wants his name on the property...(They are getting Divorced) She needs to know, How to get a Quit Claim Deed? Does he need to be present with her, or can she get it and have him sign off on it ? and Where in the state of Maryland to go and otain one?
Thank You!!!

I answered your "friend" in the other forum. She needs to talk to an attorney or a title company. Do a search on Google for - Maryland real estate attorney

Or search for Maryland title company

or search the same but change Maryland to your local city or nearest major city

Hi Twistnsista,

Your friend can look at http://www.wsba.org/info/x-12c.pdf

It is a sample quitclaim deed form. This type of deed varies from state to state. To find out a form of her state, she can ask the county recorder there.

She can get the form herself and later have her husband's signature on it. Her husband will not have to be present with her at the time of getting the deed. But at the time of recording the deed, he must go with her at the county recorder's office.

Hi Gary,

Welcome to forums.

If your wife has agreed to remove her name from the deed, then that's good. All you need to do is, take help of an attorney in drafting a quitclaim deed. Then get it signed by your wife as she will be conveying her share of interest in property to you. Also get the deed signed by a notary public and then record it at the Registrar of Deeds.

Thanks

I have been married for 8 years and we are now purchasing a home. I will not be on the mortgage and my husband feels I should not be on the deed or Title. He feels it is logical for only one spouse to be on the deed and title since there could be a possible lein against the home from the spouse (me) with less than perfect credit. No credit is joint, we still carry our own bank accounts. He also mentioned the possibilty of the less than pefect spouse being in an accident and being sued. Also, does it cost extra on a homeowners policy to have two people listed on the tilte and deed. I do not think this is an issue but for some reason it is one of his excuses. Can someone please shed a little light on this issue. I am totaly baffled by the whole suggestion.

Hi Maggie,

If you are on the title and don't want to be on the loan, the lender will ask you to sign a quitclaim deed to give up your ownership to your husband before they finance the house. Thus, it is better for only one of you to be on the title as well as the loan, or both be on the title and loan. This will also enable you to qualify for a first time home buyer's credit when you purchase a home in your name in future. However, the reason he has cited doesn't seem convincing. There can be a lien from not just the spouse with less than perfect credit, but can also be from the one with a perfect credit. Similarly, the spouse with a perfect credit can also be sued. I don't think two people on the title make much of a difference on cost of homeowners policy.

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi randy,

I don't think that would be possible because any such transfer at this point would be considered as a way to avoid lien and the the person suing will have the right to reverse the deed and place a lien on the property.
