Posted on: 09th Mar, 2008 07:08 pm
my wife was asked by a man she had always known as uncle bert died last 3/17/07 his real neice was granted administrator
of his estate-- she and the other 10 legal family left each signed a quitclaim deed to my wife -- can she change the quit claim deed over to a regular ownership deed. and can she acquire a loan on the land
Hi Rcovington,

Welcome to the forums.

I guess your wife has already received the ownership rights on property through the quitclaim. But has the deed been notarized and recorded or else it won't be valid. And yes, she can get a loan after the deed is recorded and she becomes the owner.

Take Care

Hi Rcovington,

Welcome to the forum.

I agree with Sara that if the deed has been notarized and recorded in the county recorder office, then she has already got the ownership of the property and also she can apply for a loan on the land.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,
Larry

hi pattynewyork,

as you have already quitclaimed you are no longer a co-owner and have no right to the property. to remove your name from the loan, your ex needs to refinance it in her name. but if she doesn't there's little you can do about it. i think you should discuss this with your ex, because may be she hasn't been able to refinance due to a low credit score or something like that.

thanks,

jerry

I am looking to purchase a piece of land but it has a quitclaim deed since the previous owner gave the land to his son. Is there any way to change the quitclaim deed to a warranty deed before I buy it?

Hi funkyterrance,

If there is no mortgage or any other lien on the property, then you can ask the present owner of the property to sign a warranty deed and transfer the property to you.

Ibought a piece of property and I received a quickclaim deed I am worried can I apply for a warranty deed?

Hi Guest,

I guess the property has a lien on it and that's the reason why you received a quit claim deed. If there is no mortgage on the property, then you could have received a warranty deed.

Thanks

quit claim has been notarized and recorded. What steps do I need to do to get owner's name only on the General Warrant Deed?

Hi manny!

Welcome to forums!

The grantor will have to sign a general warranty deed and transfer the property to the grantee. As the deed has been notarized and recorded, I think the owner's name is mentioned on it.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

I purchased a house from a family member a few years back. I am still making a monthly payment to him for the property. (we have a deed of trush, quitclaim deed, and promisary note).

I want to sell this property and pay off what I owe him. I have a buyer and they want a standard "warranty deed". How do I do this????

Hi Robbie,

You will have to contact a real estate attorney and he/she will help you in drafting the warranty deed to sell off the property.

Thanks
