Hi newearthday!

Welcome to forums!

If you give her the money, then she can sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property in your name. However, her name will still remain on the mortgage docs and the lender will want you to refinance the mortgage in your name. So, you need to refinance it so that the property as well as the mortgage, both, will be in your name.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
