Hi

I and my roommate bought a property in 2004. We just signed the refinance documents to be in my name only and I am buying him out for $x.XX. I am planning on us filling out a quit claim deed to remove his name from title. Teh respective state is Tennessee. Is there anything else I need to do besides havinbg the deed recorded to remove his property interest completely?

Thanks
Liz

Welcome Bjacobsen,

I suppose you're on the right track. And just see that you get a notary public to sign on your deed and 2 other witnesses. Then get the deed recorded fast.

Ask an attorney to draft the deed as he knows what to put down in the legal language. Also, check out the TN laws as to whether you need to sign the deed as the grantee. That's because in many states, only the grantor (one who's transferring property interest) needs to sign.
