I have a situation where I was to quitclaim deed my interest of my home to my ex when we divorced. Well, we went through a company of his choice to record the deed and they only did 50% interest. So the house is still 50% in my name. I was told that I now need to do a quitclaim deed for the additional 50%, and the company wants to charge me $120 to do this.
I went and bought a form and all I need to know what verbiage I put on the line where it asks for good consideration and for the sum of....can I just put 50 %? There is no money involved at all.
Thanks!

Hi MH,
I don't understand how the company made a mess of this simple process. You simply prepare or download a form, sign it, get it notarized and finally record it in county recorder's office. That's all you need to do to transfer your share.
However, coming back to your question, I don't think you can put 50% as such. I think you have to write the amount which is half the property's worth. But, you better ask the company who messed this whole thing up. They would be in a better position to answer this query.
