Post     Post subject: Quit Claim Deed or Buy Out Procedures?

Hi,

My boyfriend and I bought a house together 2 years ago. We've decided to break up. I am leaving and he wants the house. We both want to be fair since we both put alot into the house. I was thinking about just signing a quit claim deed and cut my losses, but then I could use the money also. I am not sure what the best choice is for us since this is our first mortgage and I have no clue what a quit claim deed or a buy out entails or how to go about it??

Hi Tali,

Welcome to MortgageFit Forums.

Through a quit claim deed you can transfer your interests in the house to your boyfriend. The deed form can be available online or you can purchase it from an office store.

But keep in mind that it's always better if the deed is prepared under the guidance of an attorney.

Quit claim deed will not transfer the mortgage. To get your name removed from the mortgage, it needs to be refinanced in your bf's name only. Discuss with the lender about your plan. You can refinance with the same lender or with a different lender if you want.

Feel free to ask if you have more doubts.

God bless you.

For MortgageFit,
Samantha

Thank You! This is a very hard decision. I was under the impression that this was done through the title company.

Hi,
If I sign a quit claim deed over to my spouse does it release me from being responsible for the mortgage payments?

Hi Cindy,

Quit claim deed has nothing to do with the mortgage payments. Quit claim deed is done only to transfer the interests in the property.

You will still be responsible for the mortgage payments even after signing a quit claim deed. To transfer the mortgage you need to refinance it.

Hi Marque,

Welcome to the forums.

A quit claim deed is usually done while signing over the share of interest in the property. So if you wish to transfer your share of interest in the property to her husband, then the quit claim is the right way.

But if you wish to take your name off the title and hand over the ownership rights to someone else, then you should look towards signing a title deed.

Regards,

Jessica.

Hi,

As far as I know, for the requirements of the deeds, you should approach an attorney and get a quit claim deed form prepared by him along with any other legal paper, if required.

Thanks,

Caron.

Hi Tubby,

There are free quit claim deed forms available on the Internet, however, most have minimal protections and are legal in only a few states. Laws regarding deeds differ in each state. A generic deed can not be valid in all states. I suggest you acquire a deed form specific to your state.

Hi,

Actually I am a bit confused on what actually you want to do. Smile If you want to keep the interest same you can go for a novation and check with your lender.

A quit claim deed has nothing to do with the mortgage. So, even if you quit claim your interests in the house, you are still liable to pay the mortgage loan. If you want to get your name removed from the mortgage, you need to go for a novation or refinance the mortgage in your ex's name.

He can quit claim his interests on the property to you but as I said earlier he won't be able to get out of the loan through quit claim. For that either refinance or novation is required.

Feel free to clarify your doubts with us.

My grandfather who died in 1982 had a house and land in his name. A quick claim deed was done in 1984 on the house and land. Do the other heirs have claim to this property or is it the one who had the quick claim deed done? He did not have a will.

Hi,

Welcome to the forums.

If your father has created a will and considered you as a legal owner of the property, then you may receive your share of the property. However, if you are the heir, you can divide the interest in the property among all heirs through a quit claim deed.

Thanks,

Sara.
