The quit clim deed gave away your interest in the property. However the mortgage remains in both names. This mater should have been addressed in the divorce documents, although most are not in my opinion. Reasoning with ex is the best approach. An attorney will cost with not much results. You can’t force someone to refi if they don’t want to, and probably couldn’t if late or missed payments. Unfortunatly you have no control over this, at this point.

Just a thought did he record the QC deed and was it notorized if you answer no to both, it may not be legal. In which case you may have some options.

I need some advice regarding quitclaim deeds.

I am now divored. I need to get my name off the house my ex lives in. I signed a quitclaim deed in order to get away from ex. I now am in a position where I can purchase a home for my own. Everything was fine, until, of course, I told the bank about that quitclaim…
I’m looking to anyone who can help me get this amended, so I can get off the quitclaim. Are there any loopholes I can work with.
I am already aware of refinancing, however, let’s just say my ex isn’t the cooperating type. I also know about getting canceled checks for 1 months proving that he is paying the house payment. Again, I know he will be difficult.

Any other ideas? Can an attorney help…what’s the cost?..
I’m in Ohio.

Thanks
