Hi bojo,
In a community property state, if you bought a piece of property with your own fund, but after marriage the payments were made from you and your spouses' combined fund (community fund), then she is liable to get a certain portion of the property as per the Moore Marsden Rule. This is where a pre-nuptial agreement can be useful. However, doing a post nuptial agreement is also possible. This can help you create separate properties out of the community property. I think you should consult an attorney and get a post-nup agreement drawn up by him.
Thanks,
Jerry |

Hi R Moore,
As far as I know an act of donation for real estate property is legal in texas, but I'm not sure though. Why don't you trasfer property through a quitclaim or warranty deed? You can gift the property through the deed. You can also claim gift tax exemptions on such transfer. |

|
| My husband needs to transfer joint/half interest in his property in order for me to be able to file a homestead exemption on our home/land. What kind of paperwork does this entail and do we need a lawyer or just a title company for it? |

Post subject: Transferring ownership of a mobile home |
|
|
| A friend of mine is selling her mobile home. She owns the home outright so there is no liens/mortgages on the home. When she finds a cash buyer what paper work will be required to be completed to transfer the home? She thinks they can just sign a warranty deed and be done with it. Is this right? Doesn't it have to be filed somewhere with the state or county? What is all the steps she must do once she has a buyer? |

Hi GRACIE,
Since he passed away without leaving a will, you need to file an affidavit of heirship with court. The court will then decide who will inherit how much of the property as per the laws of intestacy as applicable in the state. You cannot sell the house until you have the title in your name. |

Hi mariana,
Could you please translate this into English? It would then be possible for me to understand the issue and comment on it. |
