Hi BB,

As the divorce decree states that your ex-husband needs to refinance the property, he must do it. If he hasn't refinanced the property, you can even sue him in the court. Novation is a way of transferring the mortgage from one person to another but lenders prefer refinance over novation.

Thanks
mary

Hi keekers,

Since nobody else wants this house and your grandparents are deceased, you have to file an Affidavit of heirship with a probate court so the property gets legally transferred to your name.

Hi mary,

It's always better to consult an attorney before you draw up the deed as the verbiage on the deed varies with varying situation. It also reduces the chance of any disputes arising out of it in future.

Hi j,

Since the kids will not be of age for 7 years, any legal representative of the children, appointed by the court, can sign the deed.

Hi anonymous,

What I understand is that you want to change the title to your father's name using a warranty deed. Right? Well, if this is what you want, go through the following topic on warranty deed to know all about the deed and how to validate it.

Post     Post subject: No Warranty deed signed after divorce 9 years ago

My X husband was awarded the business and real estate in the divorce. The papers did not spell out the location of the business or address. Nine years later he sells the property without a warranty deed. My name now appears with the new buyer as part owner. I do not want to let the property go until I am reimbursed for bills that were never paid. What are my options and how could he have sold the property with my name still as part owner. Texas

Hi Compass,

I also wonder how he managed to sell the property without a warranty deed and your consent. Was the sale legal? It may be that he quitclaimed his share in the property to the new owner as a quitclaim deed doesn't guarantee who the actual owner of the property is and whether it has any lien on it. However, I also don't understand how your name appears on the title, given the fact that he was awarded the property in the divorce.

Hi rfuentes,

To change the title to the house from your father's name to yours, you need to get a quitclaim deed signed by him whereby he would transfer his share in the property, either in full or in part, to you. You can refer to the quit claim deed related page for more details.

Post     Post subject: Transfer of property

My mother has Texas property lots that were willed to her at her husband's death many years ago. Those properties are still in her husband's name. What is the easier way to transfer title to her? Can she use one document to transfer all ten lots to her name or must she use individual documents for each piece of property? Does she need to use an attorney since the estate was probated many years ago in Colorado?
Thank you,
M.A.
