My daughter was living with a man for 10 years. They bought a house together. Both their names are on it. They broke up, he does not want the house. How does she get him off the taxes & the mortgage.
She will need to refinance the mortgage into her name and they can do a quit claim deed to remove his name from title. _________________ Mike Sweeney

Hi jay jones,
To get your partner off the title, first of all you need to sign on a quitclaim deed. Depending upon the state you are in, the partner may or may not sign on the quitclaim deed. However, if at all your partner is not willing to co-operate with you, try filing a partition lawsuit for a forced sale of the home.

My son put me on title of his condo incase something happens to him. I'm not on the mortgage. Can I get off title and not be responbile for this property?
i was engaged to be married we had a date set and bought a house together. i love the house and always wanted to live there- it happens to be next door to my mothers. both our names are on the house and the mortgage. two weeks after signing all those papers he lost his job and i caught him cheating. we broke it off and now im stuck. for the past two years ive been living with a man i cant stand. he wont leave and doesnt contribute toward the mortgage or any other bills at all. i do not wish to sell the house. how do i get him to leave, get his name off the mortgage and title and keep the house of my dreams.
You will have to ask that person to quitclaim the property to you. Once the property is in your name, you can refinance it and transfer the mortgage in your name. This will help you to remove him from the property and the mortgage and also save the house.

I have a friend that lives with his girlfriend, both there names are on the house. They broke up & he wants his name off. Is there an easy way to do it?
He can sign a quitclaim deed in the name of his girlfriend and transfer the property in her name. Then his girlfriend can notarize and record the deed at the county recorder's office.
However, your friend should remember that this will not transfer the mortgage liabilities to his girlfriend. If his name is on the mortgage, then after transferring the property, your friend should ask his girlfriend to refinance it.
