Is quitclaim deed a way to remove co-borrower from title?

Hi Matty!

If the co-borrower dies, then the other borrower will be responsible for the property as well as the mortgage.

Thanks,

A condo is mortgaged in only my mother-in-laws name. Both my name and her name are on the title. She will be to filing for bankruptcy. Would this effect me or my credit in any way? Is there a way to remove my name form title? Please help! What is the best solution??

Hi Jess!

As your name is not on the mortgage, your credit will not be affected. You can sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property in your mother-in-law's name.

Thanks,

Is this an option to Short Sales or Forclosure?

Hey DanD,

A quitclaim deed helps in transferring property from one person to another. So if you are planning to give away your property to the lender for a short sale or a deed in lieu foreclosure, you can use a quitclaim deed to transfer the property in the lender's name.

just beacuse he's off the deed dont mean he's off the loan till you refinance

Take a look at it. I hope it'll help you.

My fiance and I bought a home together. If we split up and I keep the home will a quick claim deed work for our situation?

hi shelly!

welcome to forums!

you will have to ask your fiance to sign a quit claim deed in your favor and transfer the property to you. once he does so, you would become the owner of the property. however, if the mortgage is in both names, then you would have to refinance it in your name in order to release your fiance from the liability of paying the dues.

feel free to ask if you've further queries.

If my divorce decree states that my ex has to sign a quit claim, but she refuses, is there any way to get her off the house without it or do I have to take her back for contempt. Its been 2 years since the divorce was final and my lawyer doesnt want to deal with this.

Hi hardcorepunk,

You have the court orders which states that your ex should quit claim the property to you. Thus, she is legally bound to do so. If she does not do so, then that would be considered as illegal. I would suggest you to contact an attorney and take his suggestions in this regard. He will able to let you know what steps you need to take in order to remove your ex from the property deed.

Thanks

I am having difficulty refinancing my mortgage due to my debt to income ratio. A friend has offered to co-sign which will allow the refi to happen. Will he have rights to the property, or is he just liable for the mortgage?

Hi cassandra!

Welcome to forums!

If your friend cosigns for the loan, then you will have to add him or her to the property. Once the person is added to the property, he or she will become the owner of the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

I got married & I need to change my name on the deed. Can this be done by a quick claim at a title company?
Also, if I put my husband's name on the deed too, how should that be worded. Greg AND Janice or Greg or Janice? I've heard that if you use "and", it would be difficult to close the estate in the even that one or the other dies.
