Can a quit claim deed help in my situation?

Two and a half years ago a family member convinced my husband and I to “take over payments” on their house.Family arguements have us concerned that we don’t really have any claim on this property. Now we would like to get it in our name. A finance company said that they do not usually finance such small amount only owe for about 5 1/2 years. (Would hate to get it so close to paid and family member tell us “Thank You, Bye Bye!” ) Do not have a lot of money to work with. They recommended a quit claim deed and then financing in our own name. If I can get family member to sign quit claim, will the current mortgage company have a problem with this? They get a check from ME each month! A little confused about options and how real etate works. I would really appreciate any advice (besides my Mom’s “don’t do business with family”)! Thanks so much in advance!

How do I get out of reassessing my property taxes when filing a quit-claim deed?

I am in the process of buying out my brother through a quit-claim deed. Just curious as to how I can get out of re-assessing my property taxes.

The house was purchased in 1999, so the value is substantially less than it is now.

How to avoid re-assessment and difference between grant and quit claim deed?

I need to transfer property to my daughter. I’ve gotten some really great advice here regarding to this issue. But could someone clarify
1. the difference between a grant deed transfer vs. quit claim. What are the advantages of one vs. the other.
2. Will my property be re-assessed for its property value once it’s transfered to a different person? Is there anyway to avoid reassessment?
3. Still mortgaging; so should I use the grant deed transfer forms or quit claim deed? Which is better in this case?

Thanks in advance.

What is the process to approach the court to sign the quit claim deed?

I have been divorced from for 5 years. Currently he is living in Florida and I live in Chicago. Now, the house was given to me after divorce as stated on the divorce decree. He signed the quit claim deed to me, but the notary commissioner’s seal expired before I could get it recorded at the county clerk’s office. Do I have to get it signed by him again or do I have to look for attorney? I have also heard that I can approach the court for the judge to sign the house to me. Is it true? What is the process and do I take an order to get the hearing?

How does a QUIT CLAIM DEED work? Does the owner have to pay the same taxes as they would in an actual sale?

What if there is no money involved?

Example : If a relative wanted to use a quit claim deed to gift a piece of property to a family member, would they have to pay gift taxes?
Damn….I’m trying to get around these stupid taxes….I’m probably just s.o.l.
