In Community Property States In a community property state ? let's say California ? your ownership rights are automatic for a house acquired during your marriage. Your home is equally shared between you, fifty-fifty ? no matter how it's titled. You can change this only by giving up your rights in the home.

Tennessee is not a community property state. Like most states in the Union, Tennessee has adopted equitable distribution as its governing law, which strives to make things equitable, not equal, between divorcing partners?a subtle, but important distinction.

How do I add (or remove) someone from my deed? To add, change, or remove a name on a property you will need to have a new document prepared and have it recorded in our office. A Quit Claim Deed or Warranty Deed will need to be completed. This document will replace your previous deed.

Laws & Requirements Signing Requirements § 66-24-101: A Tennessee quitclaim deed requires a written and signed grantor agreement. It must also include either two witnesses or acknowledgment by a notary or officials, especially when transferring property between unrelated parties.

For example, if John sells his property to Jane, the derivation clause in the deed of trust would state that John was the previous grantor and the recording date of the deed. This information is important for future reference and to ensure that the title is clear and free of any encumbrances.

The grantee or trustee must state under oath upon the face of the instrument offered for record in the presence of the register the actual consideration or value, whichever is greater, for the transfer of a freehold estate.

A Tennessee quitclaim deed form transfers the current owner's entire interest in the property with no warranty or covenants of title. The new owner (the grantee) receives whatever ownership interest the current owner (the grantor) can legally transfer.

A Tennessee deed must include a derivation clause identifying the deed or other instrument that is the source of the current owner's title. If the current owner received the property through a recorded deed, the derivation clause must identify the type of deed, book and page number, and recording office.

Can I have my spouse on the title without them being on the mortgage? Yes, you can put your spouse on the title without putting them on the mortgage. This would mean that they share ownership of the home but aren't legally responsible for making mortgage payments.
