my divorce is final. i live in lake county, illinois. the divorce decree states "petitioner shall provide respondent with an executed quit claim deed releasing her interest in the real property" (family home). i believe she is trying to get me to pay the filing fees to the county. does executed mean signed and filed with the county? who files the quit claim deed with the county-grantor or grantee?
Hi steve526sharon,
Executing a deed means that it will be notarized, filed and recorded at the county recorder's office. The grantor and the grantee will have to mutually decide as to who will bear the costs of filing the deed.
Thanks
