A girlfriend and i bought a house together back in 2008. in 2009 she kicked me out and for the past two years she has been living there making the payments. recently she contacted me requesting that i remove my name from the mortgage. initially i agreed but now believe i have certain rights. Do i have any rights? I recently recieved a quitclaim from her lawyer. What should i do?

Hi Guest,
If your name is mentioned in the mortgage docs, then you will be considered liable for the mortgage payments. This doesn't mean that you have any rights on that property. You need to ask her to refinance the mortgage in her name in order to remove your name from the mortgage docs. However, if your name is mentioned on the property docs, then you will be considered as one of the owners of the property and you will have the rights to stay in that property.
Thanks
