My parents bought a house for me and my wife, because we did not have good credit. If we agree to a quick claim deed and I show proof that I have paid the mortgage for a certain amount of time, will this improve my credit, so that I can then purchase the home from them.

Hi tejanae,

A quitclaim deed may not be able to help you in improving your credit score. However, if your name is mentioned on the mortgage docs and if you've paid the mortgage payments on time and it is reported to the credit bureaus, then it will help you in improving your credit score.

If my name is listed on the mortgage docs and I have proof that I have made the mortgage payments on time, will improving my credit score help to refinance the home in my name alone?

If your name is not mentioned on the mortgage, then you won't be liable for the mortgage payments. if you wish, you can refinance the mortgage in your name and pay it off in order to save the property.
