As you've added your husband to the property deed, then he would always be able to claim his share of the property from you. You can ask your husband to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer his portion of the property to you. Moreover, you can add your father to the property deed. This will help him claim his share of the property after your death. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial sucess
