Hello! I have been looking for answers for months now, and cannot find a situation like mine... I have been on a house title, but not the mortgage for a few years now... Last year I was divorced through a simplified dissolution in the state of Florida. There was no court ordered division of assets/debts as the dissolution is uncontested. I want no part of the house due to the circumstances which brought about the divorce. The house is being rented, and all monies are being collected by my ex. Is there any financial responsibility in the house on my part? is there any way I can get off the title, even if the ex is refusing to sign a quit claim?
Hi ryankrull!
Welcome to forums!
As your name is on the property deed, you might be held responsible for the property taxes and insurance. You should sign a quit claim deed and transfer the property to your ex. This will make your ex solely responsible for the property. After you sign the deed, make sure to notarize it and file it at the county recorder's office.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

would I just sign it and file it with my signature only?
On the forms I've seen, the recipient of the deed will need to sign as well.
that will never happen... is there any other way out?
I don think there is any other way out.
