:( I have brought a home and put my boyfriend's name on the deed, we were
going to get married but he has gotten in big trouble and was incarcenrated, he
has gotten fifteen years in jail, so can I get his name removed from the deed.
The mortgage is in my name.

Welcome Jan,
You will have to ask him to sign a quit claim deed in your favor. This will help you in transferring the property in your name. Once he does so, you should notarize and record the deed at the county recorder's office.

of course, the quit claim deed has to be something he's willing to do. it makes sense, though, since he'd be unable to assist you in the event you ever needed financing.
sorry...not "ever" but at least for the next several years.
