Post subject: Transfer of Texas Home Title/Deed |
|
|
Hello,
I need to find out what my Mom should do, to get a home, in Texas, in her name and out of my uncle's name.
1. My uncle's name is on the deed, my uncle is in prison and unavailable
2. my terminally ill aunt (his wife), using my uncle's full power of attorney, wrote a Notarized letter to my mother (her sister) stating that, upon my aunt's death, my Mother could pay off the house and then it would be my mothers property.
3. My aunt died, and then my mother had all the taxes and association fees transferred into her name, using the power of attorney and notarized letter.
4. Finally, my mother paid off the house and the mortgage bank sent my mother the Deed in my Uncle's name.
5. Now we need to know what we need to do, to get my uncle's name off the property title/Deed and into my mother's name only.
Thank you |

| We just sold our mobile (plus the lots that it is on) to a couple from California. We agreed to split the title cost. I took the info to the same title company we used when we bought it 3 years ago. The total cost is going to be around $1000. This seems high. Could we have just used a Texas warranty deed to transfer the title. |

Welcome,
To usmctoys,
Your uncle now needs to sign a quitclaim deed in your mother's favor giving her the ownership rights of the property. Once he signs the quitclaim deed, she will have to notarize and record the deed at the county recorder's office.
To tefarmer,
As far as I know, yes, you can use a Texas warranty deed in order to transfer the title to the new buyers. But you will have to notarize and record it.

Hello,
My husband and I bought a townhome several years ago and we just paid it off. We received the warranty deed and we were advised to have it recorded at the county clerk's office. I'm new in all this and I don't know what steps to take or how the process works. Can anyone help me please?
P.S. What documents should I bring to the county clerk's office when I file the warranty deed?
Thanks. |

| My parents own a home and have a home equity loan outstanding on the home. I want to "purchase" the home (pay off the equity loan) and change ownership to my name. What is the easiest and cheapest way to do this in Texas? |

Hi,
To extremely overwhelmed,
Congratulations!!! It's a great news that you paid off the mortgage. As far as I know, you will require the warranty deed in order to record it at the county recorder's office. It will be better if you can take the help of an attorney in this regard.
To Anjee
In order to buy the home, you can use a warranty deed to transfer the property. As far as the mortgage is concerned, you will have to refinance the mortgage in your name. But check out if there is a due on sale clause mentioned in the current mortgage docs. In that case, the mortgage will become due if your parents sell off the property.
Thanks. |

| Through a separation by choice, my ex partner has agreed to sign a warranty deed (TEXAS) giving me all rights to the property. As we are both listed on the mortgage - is this the correct deed to use for this transaction? |

Hi DannyP,
Yes, the deed used is correct. But by signing this deed, only the property has been transferred in your name. In order to transfer the mortgage in your name, you need to refinance it.
Thanks |

You can use a lady bird deed to transfer the property to your heirs. This deed will help you retain the life estate in the property and you will also have the right to sell off the property without taking their permission. To know more, check out:

Hi Jill,
If the will has been probated and filed in the county recorder's office, then you can either use a quitclaim deed or a warranty deed to transfer the property in your brother's name. Once you and your sister sign the deed, you will have to notarize the deed and record it at the county recorder's office. Otherwise it won't be considered as valid.
Thanks |

Welcome girlygirlspike,
It is always better to hire an attorney while filling out any kind of deed or transferring property with the help of a deed.

Post subject: Ex would refinance |
|
|
| My ex husband and I have been divorced for 3 years now. The divorce decree ordered him to refinance the home we lived in 3 months after the order was singed by the judge. As of this day he still kept me on the mortgage. He is constantly late with his mortgage payments and the fact is that he hasnt been living in that home for over a year. So there goes his homestead exemption. Anyhow my question is: is there a way to get me off that mortgage somehow other than he refincancing it? If he doesnt live in the home can it be forced to sold since he doesnt even live in it? I have my own life now, have a new spuse and house but I cant even be on my new home's mortgage becasue I am still on the old one. I have never been added as an owner to my ex's house only to the mortgage. Please help if you have a idea, so I can finally close the door on my past. Thank you. |
