Hi,
You need to sign a quit claim deed in order to transfer your interest in the property to your husband. Until and unless that doesn’t happen, your husband will not be able to sell the entire property.
You can visit our page on Quit Claim Deed for more information.
Thanks,
Jerry

My grandmother owns property that she wants to give to me.My grandfather died several years and she is in a nursing home.She has nothing else that would need a will. Her son is still living but she doesn't want him to have the property.Can a quick claim deed work for her to turn the property over to me before she dies?
Hi,
Welcome to MortgageFit Forums.
Your grandmother can quit claim her interests in the property to you. But as you know real estate transfers are critical and should be done under the guidance of a real estate attorney only.
So, while you process the deed, get it done in presence of an attorney. Do get the deed notarized and recorded in the county's recorder office.
God bless you.

hi. my husband about 10 years ago signed a quick claim deed and the gentleman never did get it recorded, now dec. 2005 the gentleman had passed away and the house went into foreclosure, my husbands name is on the mortgage. my question is since the gentleman never recorded the deed and it has been 10 years and he passed away is the deed still good or does my husband still have rights to the house.
thanks linda. :cry: :(

Hi Linda,
Welcome to MortgageFit Forums.
There is no legal requirement to get a deed recorded, but recording makes it more authentic. Some times it is found that the previous owner had never given up his title of ownership and in that case the person is needed to be contacted again to get it signed.
Recording a deed gives a clear idea of the title chain on the property. I don't think it will be a problem for you if you continue to stay in the house but the problem may come when you want to take a mortgage on the property or want to sell it.
Don't lose hope. :) Never feel yourself alone. We are with you. There should always be a way out. I shall advise you to consult a good real estate attorney to help you out of this situation.
God bless you.
