About 4 years ago my father quitclaim deeded a property over to me. We had a verbal agreement for a mortgage payment of $900 a month. I just now find out through a clerk of court website that he had a promissory note registered with the county in Florida 4 months after the quickclaim deed was filed. Since a quitclaim deed releases all right, title, interest, and claim to a property "forever" (exact wording in document) is this promissory note valid?
I think this question will be well addressed by any attorney only.but still quitclaim deed supersedes the promissory note.

a promissory note's validity is based, at least in part, on the parties to it. did you sign a promissory note? if so, did you do so willingly? do you owe the money claimed on the note?
i surmise that if you answer in the affirmative to all three questions, then the promissory note will be found to be valid.

check whether quit claim deed is notarized or not. if not, it is not valid.
The quitclaim deed is notarized and my signature is on the promissory note although I have no memory of EVER signing it. The amount on the promissory note is more than the amount we verbally agreed on. I am consulting an attorney presently and he said that the mortgage may have to be filed within 90 days of the quitclaim deed. Anyone have any ideas?
i have to ask this: if the promissory note is different than the agreed-upon amount, why oh why did you sign it?
I do not remember signing it. At the time of the quitclaim deed I signed many papers but I assumed since it was my father that I had nothing to worry about.
did you not get a copy of what you signed?
