how to remove someones name off home deed and mortgage

Posted on: 05th Jan, 2009 02:03 pm
both parties are in agreement to remove one parties name off the deed/mortgage. the remaining name on said documents will resume living in residence and continue to pay the mortgage. they have only lived in the residence 1yr.
Welcome Leah,

It would have been better if you won't have included your name in the property deed and the mortgage. You can sign a quit claim deed and transfer the property to your husband. However, unless your husband refinances the mortgage in his name, you won't be able to remove your name from the mortgage docs. However, as your husband is already past due on his mortgage payments, he won't be able to refinance the loan.

hi jewels,

you will have to ask your sister to sign a quit claim deed and transfer her share of the property to you. this will make you the sole owner of the property.

Hi Nea,

You will have to ask the person to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you. Though sample deeds are available online, it's better to contact a real estate attorney and get the deed drafted from him.

My dad died and his house was put in my sisters name with the bank. I've lived in it all along and we want it in my name now. Do we have to get the banks okay and will they run a credit check on me?

Hi mjlong!

Welcome to forums!

It will be better to inform the bank and then get the property transferred in your name. The lender will run a credit check only if you go for a mortgage.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

hi crisi!

welcome to forums!

you and your husband will have to refinance the mortgage in your name in order to remove your friend from the loan. you can ask her to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you. this will make you the owner of the property as well as the mortgage.

feel free to ask if you've further queries.

My friend bought and paid for his home. At the time his grand nephew and he were getting along quite well and my friend being considerably older, considered it a gesture of ..well I don't know what. Now his nephews behavior and attitude have made living with him an unbearable situation. How can he get rid of nephew? Because his name is on the deed even though he has paid nothing, he continues to live there against my friends wishes. how can he be legally removed from both the house and the deed?

Hi dgio!

Welcome to forums!

As the nephew's name is mentioned on the property deed, he is one of the owners of the property. Though he hasn't paid anything, your friend cannot force him to leave the property. However, if the nephew quitclaims the property to your friend, then your friend can ask him to leave the property. At that time, your friend will become the sole owner of the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Is there any way to force the nephew to sign the quitclaim. My friend owns the home outright and other than the fact that he had a moment of un-clarity the only claim that the nephew has is that moment when his name was put on the deed. There has to be some legal way to get him out of the picture. I await your answer.

Hi dgio,

No one can force the nephew to sign the quitclaim deed and release his claims over that property. If anybody forces him to sign the deed, it will be considered as illegal. It will be better if your friend could buy him out by offering him some money and asking him to sign the quitclaim deed. If the nephew agrees to it, then your friend will become the sole owner of the property.

Thanks

Hi AlyssaG!

Welcome to forums!

Unless your sister signs a quitclaim deed and transfers the property to your father, he won't be able to drop her name from the deed.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
