my wife bought a house when we were living together. we them got married and sold the house a few years later. now the house going up for auction and an attorney sent me a quit claim form to sign and send back. says i have a possible interest in the property. what are the advantages of not signing it or signing it?
The best thing for you to do is hire your own attorney who can help you with your particular scenario. There are too many "unknowns" here for any of us to give you clear direction on your situation.
Hi bobsdss,
"we them got married and sold the house a few years later. now the house going up for auction and an attorney sent me a quit claim form.......says i have a possible interest in the property"
If you had sold the house, the title had already been transferred to the person who bought it from you. In that case, you do not have any interest in the property and I do not see any reason why you need to sign a quitclaim deed. Did you not transfer the title to the new owner? Is the title still in your name?

incomplete information to comment..........
it is not required as property is already transferred in others name.
