I am co-owner of a house with son-in-law. I reside in home and pay the mortgage and property taxes. He and my daughter are currently separated (he is incarcerated) and will be divorced shortly. My daughter and her children reside in the house, but she is not on mortgage. Son-in-law is reluctant to sign quit claim to transfer interest in house to wife without some form of compensation. As he has not contributed monetarily, how can I remove him from deed without compensation.
unless he signs a vesting deed (aka quitclaim, warranty,etc) nothing can be done. when he is divorced, the judge will decides who gets what at that time, his interst can be awarded to his wife. If that is granted, then your problem is solved!
Hi
It is not possible to remove your son in law from the title, unless he signs the quitclaim deed. You can wait till the divorce process is complete and the judge decides who that house should go to.
