If you pay someone's mortgage you can place a lien on the property only if you have stated that condition in a properly drafted written agreement signed by both parties. If there is no agreement then you are a volunteer and have no legal standing to place a lien on the property.

Need to file a "Quit Claim Deed". However, this will not remove that persons name from the original deed of trust - the only 100% certain way of getting a name removed like this is to refinance the loan. You cannot remove someone from a deed based on whether or not they contributed to the down payment or the mortgage payments without their consent, conveyance or without a legal order from forcing them to do so.

If the owner wanted to "add" you to the deed they would need to execute a deed transferring an interest in the property to you. That may trigger the due on transfer clause in the mortgage.
