my fiance and I bought a house together from a friend of his and are paying his friend a certain amount of money per month until the amount the owner wanted is met. I recently left him because it was an abusive relationship but we are both on the title. I want nothing to do with the house, how would I go about getting my name off the title and severing my obligation to the house?
Hi kallen!
Welcome to forums!
You can sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to your fiancé. This will make him the sole owner of the property and you won't be liable for it in any way.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Thank you! Can the quitclaim deed be used if the house still belongs to the owner and our names are just on the title?
if you are only on the title, and you are not on any loan, then you can sign the quit claim over to your ex, then your interests are removed from the property. if you are on the loan with another, then you would have to sell or refinance the property. contact a local title or escrow company and they can help you draft the deed and get it recorded properly.
