Hi linda

You can contact lenders who are offering land loans. However, the criteria for getting land loans are more or less similar. You should have a credit score of 720-740 in order to get a conventional loan. As far as the FHA loans are concerned, a minimum of 620 credit score is required. Apart from this, you should also have a stable income and should be able to give a downpayment.

Take care.

Post     Post subject: warranty deed & deed of trust--

I own a house outright and want to sell it to my daughter & her husband.
I have a warranty deed and deed of trust. My bank would not notarize the
documents, do I have to go to tittle company and pay the price just to finish the sale?

Post     Post subject: Separated but not yet divorced

My husband and I are separated. We would like to transfer the ownership of the home to me. There is still a mortgage on the home that is in both of our names. We plan to divorce but not until some time in the future. How would we go about getting the home solely in my name as well as the mortgage in my name? We would like to do this now because we may continue to be separated for a while before we divorce.

To Bob,

You can sell off the property to your daughter and her husband by signing a warranty deed or a grant deed. You may mention the sale price of the property in the deed and get it notarized and recorded at the county recorder's office.

To Marie,

Your husband will have to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you. Then you can refinance and transfer the mortgage in your name.

The house is paid for but remains under my spouse and my name. If I pay my husband the 1/2 of the cost of the house what kind of deed do I needfor the house to be legally mine? I am assuming that if he agrees on sale price ... is it possible for me to just fill out a simple deed form without resorting to a lawyer?

Hi agueda!

Welcome to forums!

As the property is free and clear, you can ask your husband to sign a warranty deed or a grant deed and transfer the property to you. Your husband can fill out the deed himself but in case of any doubts, you can take an attorney's help.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Post     Post subject: general warranty gift deed

My mom transfered a property to me as a gift. Will this affect her benefits with medicaid? Is there a penalty?
Thank you.

Hi TM!

Welcome to forums!

Your mother will have to pay gift taxes because she has transferred the property to you as a gift. As far as medicaid is concerned, there is a waiting period of 5 years. Your mother will not be able to claim the benefits of medicaid for the next 5 years.

Hi Guest,

As your other siblings are not interested in the property, you will have to file an affidavit of heirship in the county recorder's office and transfer the property in your name.

Thanks
