How do I add my daughter's name to my deed
Changing names on deeds typically happens for one of several reasons including legal name changes, death, convenience or conveyance. If there is a mortgage, you will need permission from the lender. Any new deed with changed names changes ownership. The people currently named on the deed (grantor) will execute a new deed to the newly named people (grantee). The grantee(s) on the new deed are the new owners. Deeds should always be drafted by a professional. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct it they can be corrected. As soon as a new deed is executed it should be recorded in the land records.
Ownership of real property is determined by the names on the deed.
