quick claim deed

Posted on: 23rd Jan, 2007 01:28 pm
i want to file a quick claim deed to remove my spouse.
we both have different address then the property in question.
how do i fill the quick claim deed out as far as the property address.
it asks for that information and i am not sure if i put our current address or the address in question.
RJS,

Can I recommend you consult with a real estate attorney? At the very least to contact a local title company or escrow agent and ask their assistance. I'm a big believer that self-inflicted legal forms do more damage and cost more in legal fees later on then a $150 fee to have an attorney assist you on the front-end.

Hi rjs,

Welcome to forums.

I think you should give your current address when you sign the deed as the grantee.

The section on the deed where the description of the property is given will require the address of the property in question, for instance, the state and the county where it is located.

Thanks,
James.

i think your attorney or the title company who has drafted the deed will be able to tell you this exactly.

"i want to file a quick claim deed to remove my spouse."
RJS, you can not make out a quit claim deed to remove your spouse from the property. Quit claim can be used only to transfer property one has to someone else. In your situation it is your spouse who will have to make a quit claim deed to transfer his/her interest over to you. Your spouse will be named as the grantor and you the grantee.

About the address, I agree with James, where the property address will need to be entered, it will be the location where the house is situated, and your address will have to be entered in the grantee's details section.

MY father bought a townhouse using my money after my divorce since my credit was not great. He quit claimed it to me and it was recorded and the taxes and home are now in my name. However, he had re-married at the time of the purchase of the FL townhouse. Now I want to sell. Is the quit claim valied since he was the sole owner of the townhouse even though he was married? OR should he have had his wife sign the quit claim also even though she was not on the deed or purchased it? Can I now sell my townhouse without any more documents to file?

Yes Lisa, it is your property and you can sell it. At the time your father quit claimed it you it was in his sole name so it is not required to get signatures from his wife.

Hi Elizabeth,

As your parents are deceased, a quit claim deed will not help you in transferring the property in your name. You will have to file an affidavit of heirship and get the property transferred in your name. Thus, you would become the sole owner of the property.
