My boyfriend wants to add me to the deed of his house while keeping himself on it as well. I live is Washington state and found out through my counties recorders office, I am required to pay a tax on 50% of the mortgage amount which is 1.78% adding up to almost $3,000!! Is there a way to avoid this tax without my boyfriend having to pay it for me as a gift?
