FAQ
But you might be wondering if an owner can transfer a deed to another person without a real estate lawyer. The answer is yes. Parties to a transaction are always free to prepare their own deeds.A quitclaim deed, for example, is far simpler than a warranty deed.
A quitclaim deed affects ownership and the name on the deed, not the mortgage. Because quitclaim deeds expose the grantee to certain risks, they are most often used between family members and where there is no exchange of money.Quitclaim deeds transfer title but do not affect mortgages.
It is also crucial that a spouse know about the loan, even if he or she is not on the mortgage. In general, the spouse must sign a deed of trust, the Truth in Lending and Right to Cancel documents. By signing these documents, they are simply acknowledging the existence of the mortgage.
In states like California and Florida, the spouses may use a quitclaim deed to transfer the property without warranting title. Other stateslike Texasrecognize a similar type of deed called a deed without warranty.
If you sign a quitclaim deed to release yourself from ownership of the property or a claim to the title, then that doesn't mean you are no longer held accountable for the mortgage payment.Otherwise, you may be held responsible for unpaid payments despite no longer having a claim to the title.
The drawback, quite simply, is that quitclaim deeds offer the grantee/recipient no protection or guarantees whatsoever about the property or their ownership of it. Maybe the grantor did not own the property at all, or maybe they only had partial ownership.
In order to transfer ownership of the marital home pursuant to a divorce, one spouse is going to need to sign a quitclaim deed, interspousal transfer deed, or a grant deed, in order to convey the title to the property.
A quitclaim deed transfers title but makes no promises at all about the owner's title.A person who signs a quitclaim deed to transfer property they do not own results in no title at all being transferred since there is no actual ownership interest.
