Can I quick deed my half to daughter?

Posted on: 24th Jan, 2008 10:07 am
My daughter and I purchased a property in California. Property is paid for in full. Can I legally quick deed my half to her and what are the tax implications? Is it legal to purchase a property (my funds) and put a daughter on deed (as half owner) also?
Hi Eagleoneco,

Welcome to the forum.

You can quitclaim you half to your daughter. You will sign the deed as a grantor. Make sure you have notarized and recorded the deed in the county recorder office.

You can also add your daughter in the deed although you have purchase the property.

You can know more about quitclaim deed at http://www.mortgagefit.com/quitclaim-deed.html

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Larry

Hi Eagleoneco,

Welcome back.

You may have to pay gift tax. The annual gift tax exemption limit per person in a year is $ 12,000. So if the share of property what you are quitclaiming to your daughter worth more than that, then you will have to pay the tax.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,
Larry
