quit claim deed CAN take a husband off a loan - it happened to me!!
My husband left our home in April and moved to another state. He also stopped contributing to our joint debt. I had no choice but to put our home up for sale. I signed a Quit Claim Deed so I could sign all the sale documents (per my realtor). Citimortgage just recently removed my husband from our loan after he sent them the recorded document.
Below is text from the confirmation letter I received:

hi darlingjnb.
welcome to the forum.
quitclaim deed doesn't release anyone from the financial responsibility. but in your case the bank have released your husband from the mortgage as he has quitclaimed the property to you. but all the lenders dont so the same and the deed itself have not released him from the mortgage.
btw i think by releasing your husband from the mortgage, it helped you as you need not to bear the additional expense of the refinance :)
feel free to ask if you have further questions.
best of luck,

i divorce my husband ,he got home, i need to be released from loan from va home loan and mortgage. what do i do. he wants this as much as i do, but i do not want to be responsible financially,after a quickclaim deed is done. please help.
i was on a second mortgage with my ex-wife. she proceed to have a judge order to have me removed off the title in order to sell the property. is that really possible?
Hi sconrad,
In order to remove you from the title, your ex-wife needs to have a quitclaim or warranty deed signed by you whereby you will give up your interest in the property. I don't think can order to have you removed off the title without your consent.

My husband and are both have our name on the deed/title of our home which still has a mortgage. Can I put the title in my name only when I refi the first mortgage?
Hi lovedogs,
You will have to ask your husband to sign a quitclaim deed and transfer the property to you in order to change the property deed in your name. Once he does so, you can then refinance the mortgage in your name.
Take care.

I am divorcing my husband and have filed chapter 13 in an effort to stay in the house. My husband filed chapter 7 and surrendered the house. The issue is he is still on the deed and won't sign off because he is using it as leverage. I am trying to get a loan modification (he is on the mortgage) aand the bank won't help me with out his consent. Is there a way I can get him off the deed based on the surrender with out him signingit.
janice,
your statement is confusing. is it Chapter 7 or 13? pl clarify.
i hope your name will be on deed.

welcome janice,
did your husband include the property and the mortgage in his chapter 7 bankruptcy filing? if he has surrendered the property to the lender, then the lender would sell it off to recover the dues. i don't think you would be able to include the same property in your bankruptcy filing.
did you consult a bankruptcy attorney in this regard?

I filed chapter 13 and my husband filed chapter 7.
Was it the same property for which you and your husband filed Chapter 13 and chapter 7 respectively?
My current husband has a house loan in his name. In his divorce the house went to the ex (which is wha the wanted for his kids) Problem is the loan is soley in his name and she filed a quick claim deed on it. Now she makes the house payments but is constantly late on the payments, won't get house insurance, the mortgage company put an excrow on the account for the house insurance which only covers the frame of the house, now she didn't pay the property taxes so they put that money she owed in the excrow account. She went from a house payment that was 350.00 to 1200.00. She is now a behind and says it will remain behind until she gets her income tax return and there is nothing we can do about it. In the meantime we can't buy a house loan and she is screwing up my husbands credit. What are our options if any?

Hi, I filed chapter 13 about 2 years ago and the house was under that filing. The bankruptcy case went throuh and has been closed. I no longer reside in the house- it was given up under the filing but I continue to get letters to pay tax bill and now they are putting a lien on the house nad my credit.. How do I finally get a resolution? This happened last year and I called and faxed the commissioner office and I am getting it again.
