quick claim deed

Guest 0.10 Dollars($)

My mother and father bot owned (JTWROS) a small piece of property - My dad died 30 years ago - the propery is now 1/2 owned by Mom and the remaining half is owned by my 3 siblings and me. My family wants to quick claim the deed to me - how simple is this to do? My father died practically homeless - this piece of property in JTWROS was all he had - because we did not settle his estate - will this be an issue to quick claim?

Hi Laura,

Quitclaim deed is a very simple process by which your family can transfer the entire share of property to you. In the deed, your mother including all other siblings would sign as the 'grantor' and you would be the 'grantee'. And after the deed is made, it has to be notarized and recorded in the office of the County Recorder.

Hello laura,

I think you father has not left a will. But don't worry. This will not prevent the quitclaim deed, unless there is any claim to the estate.

But for transferring the property to you, all the family members who are on the deed, should give their consent and also need to sign the deed.

"JTWROS" means Joint Tenancy with Right of Survivorship. If your mother and father held title that way, and your father died, then your mother owns the house 100%.

In any event, you can have whoever the owner is transfer title to you by executing a Grant Deed. You can download the forms on the internet. Have it notarized and filed in the county where the property is located.

Hi Miss!

You and your brother will have to sign a quitclaim deed. By this deed, your brother will give away his ownership rights to you. You will have to notarize it and record it in the county recorder's office. You will get the quiclaim deeds online but it will be better if you could draft one from an attorney.

Thanks.

If your mother want to quit the property of her to you ,she can use quitclaim deed. That's quickly and simply. It will not affect other half of your siblings.
