Best Answer

Ownership of real property is always determined by wording of the title. Mortgage/lending documents in most cases are not relevant. If the title has only one person named that person is the sole owner. Persons who are not married or related can hold title as Tenancy-in-Common w/o Survivor ship rights. TIC means each owner is entitled to possession of the property in accordance to the amount of interest they each hold. It does not need to be a 50%-50% ownership. Joint Tenancy is the most common means for married couples and family members to hold title. It grants owners equal entitlement to all property rights including those of survivorship. If the title does not prove clear ownership it will be adjudicated under state probate laws.

No, a quit claim deed only changes ownership of the property. The property will still remain collateral for the mortgage loan. The actual ownership of the property does not change the terms of the mortgage loan and the promise the signatories (you) made to the bank.


How do i find out who mortgaged someone's home?

A property can only be mortgaged by someone that OWNS the property. A mortgage is a loan that is secured by the value of the property. I cannot get a mortgage on property that I do not own, since I have no right to that property. The mortgage company would be considered a lien holder- they have a claim against the property for as much as the unpaid amount of the loan. Lienholders will be listed on the deed to the property, which is recorded by the County Clerk or Recorder.


Can you sign quitclaim deed if you still owe mortgage company?

Quitclaim deeds do not release the person quitting claim from their obligations under a mortgage, although a quit claim deed is a step in the right direction. In order to remove the party who quits claim from the mortgage, you must refinance the mortgage in the name of the party to whom title or interest in the property has been conveyed. The credit scores, income and assets of the party quitting claim can no longer be used for the mortgage, and this has traditionally meant trouble for borrowers seeking to refinance to remove the party who quit claim. Quit Claim deed refinancing can be a complex situation, which requires sensitivity and specific expertise in handling refinance transactions pursuant to quit claim deeds.If you have received property or plan to receive property through the execution of a quit claim deed, for example in case of divorce, the only way to finalize ownership of property and mortgage in your own name is to refinance the mortgage once the property is deeded to you, however the overwhelming majority of lenders will not allow you to refinance property unless you have been on title to the property for at least 12 months..
