Sooo what if a parent didn't understand the quit claim deed & somehow still did it 9 years ago, @ now his other child won't get anything when he passes away & the child on the deed has ALOT of money & dosent even need it...

Would a grant deed in this situation be recorded? Even if your client had a grant deed instead if she cannot produce said document she would not be able to transfer right?

What about when a spouse signs a quick claim

I have a question for you. Please help.
I am married and I want to purchase a house on my wife's name. The title company has said that it's not possible unless we purchase as a couple, and after that file for a quick claim deed, and after that she can record the property on her name.
Question: is this the only way how things work?
Thank you.

Just received a letter from ex husband's lawyers aging a parcel of land was overlooked and wants me to sign a Quit Claim Deed? Do I have to?

What’s the limit you can quit claim to someone like a lifetime limit?

[nabitherealtour]

So that is only applicable in California? You can use a quit claim deed in other states

Good day Amanda. Would you use a quitclaim or grant deed on my grandpa's land who has passed. I kinda feel like I need his signature but I dnt know how to get around it

Because criminals prefer using quick deed they are easy in fraud cases.Then they go into section 8 program that only require deeds in your name any name you don’t actually have to prove legal ownership millions are made across the country . Seniors are the main victims.

Grant has to happen before parent pass away correct. Our parent passed the people involved agree to let daughter to buy house. Thinking a quick deed but after listening to u not sure that’s a good

If you pay property taxes on a home for 10 years, that home is now yours.

This wasnt a good example of why the quick cliam deed is a bad ideal. The trust situation is the issue, the mortgage company would have needed to see the trust indenture to be sure that the house could be sold or transfered..

We use Quit Claim Deeds all the time. You have to do your homework. She definitely should not have used the Q C.
