I bought some property that was quit claimed by a third party back to the original owner without my knowledge or for any reason that i know. The third party was a property company that no longer exists and the original owner is deceased with four heirs who knows its my land. what do i do without locking it up in probate or costing me a fortune?
I bought it in 93 third party quit claimed in 94 i home steaded in 97 was billed taxes when i built my house in 2006. went to get copy of my warrenty deed and found out about the quit claim deed. I have original warrenty deed mortgage paper and all cancelled cks proving payment. Heirs said they would sign whatever i needed them too. we just dont know what we could have them sign

Purchased a home in california, ex girlfriend moved out. Title is held in joint tenancy, we are listed on both the mortgage & title. All funds used to purchase were my seperate property, no payments from ex ever made. I do not want to file a partition & she wont sign a quit claim, what are my other options? Is she resposible for any payments? I don’t want any money from her, I just want her off the title so I can refinance. She states she plans on taking half the equity down the road & will use the house as a “insurance policy” in the event she gets into financial trouble, I would like to prevent that from happening. Any Ideas?? And yes, I am fully aware this was a very stupid decision to buy a house with someone I was not married to.

My ex and I are still married, though we’ve been separated for over 2 years. We bought the house that he has when we were married, though my credit was iffy at that time and I am not on the mortgage information.

I am severely in debt and am looking to file chapter 7 bankruptcy. I am on the deed to the house, but not on the mortgage. Does my filing bankruptcy put the house that he lives in at risk? Also, I’m filing for divorce on Tuesday and am giving him the house in the divorce.

I want to ensure that if I go into bankruptcy court they can’t take my ex’s house from him. I am also on the joint bank account that he has, but I’m going to go to the bank with him shortly to have my name taken off of it.

Any information on this would be appreciated. If I sign a quit claim deed for the house does that stop them from being able to take his house? What’s the process?

Thanks
but what happens if I file bankruptcy and he doesn’t? Will they go after the home to satisfy my debt? He has some equity in the home, but I’m not sure if it’ll be enough to cover all that I owe.

I just don’t want to make this divorce harder than it already has been.
