I had bought a house with my mother. Our name is on the title. I have gotten married but have never signed any papers. We did have a joint account for a year from which we have paid the mortgage. I just paidoff the house on my own. In this scenario, how do I get my name off the title? Is my property at risk if we divorce- well there wont be any since we are not married on paper. Any suggestions?

Hello and welcome to the forum. You can use a quit claim deed to add or remove a person's name from title. As far as the property being at risk, I think you should talk to an attorney.

You can quitclaim your portion, but there may be a community property interest held by your spouse. Consult with a local family law attorney.
