After a divorce, how can you remove a name from the deed?

Posted on: 15th Mar, 2009 10:41 am
My daughter lives in Cypress, Texas, and is recently divorced. The divorce settlement gave her the house where she and her former husband lived. She has since paid off the mortgage. How does she get his name removed as an owner of the property?
Hi fwperk,

To get his name removed from the title to the property, she needs to get a quit claim deed signed by her ex-husband whereby he would quitclaim his share to her, making her the sole owner of the property. As there is no mortgage, transferring the title shouldn't be difficult.
