My home is deeded to myself and my mother with "joint tenants w/right of survivorship" stamped on it. I did this because she lives with me and my minor children and I didn't want her thrown out if I should procede her in death. My mother no longer wishes to have her name on my deed..the children are older and she is due to retire and wants her name off everything. Can I have her sign a quitclaim deed to have her name removed from my deed?

Hi Serenity,

Your mother should sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you and your children. She can contact a real estate attorney who will help her in drafting the deed. Once the deed is signed, it needs to notarized and filed at the county recorder's office.

Thanks

Keep in mind that if there is a mortgage also on the property in both names, the property would have to be refinanced to remove the mother. Also you can try a title company for the required deeds.
