You need to review your mortgage documents before making a change in ownership. Generally, mortgages have a due on transfer clause and the bank can demand full payment if there is any change in ownership. You should consult with the attorney who represented you at your closing when you purchased the property or when you financed it. Generally, you are not free to transfer your property if it is subject to a mortgage.
Most mortgage documents have a 'due on transfer' clause that the mortgagor agreed to at the time of the signing of the mortgage. The bank must be notified of any transfer in interest or the mortgagor will be in breach of the agreement and the bank will demand payment in full. A quitclaim deed will trigger the due on transfer clause.
If the property is transferred, the mortgagor is still responsible for paying the mortgage and the property is subject to the mortgage. If the mortgage isn't paid the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure and the foreclosure will be reported on the mortgagor's credit record.If a new owner has agreed to take possession of the real estate subject to the mortgage the seller must notify the bank of the transfer of interest. The bank may require that the mortgage be paid in full and refinanced by the new owner. On the other hand the bank may agree to allow the new owner to assume the mortgage. In that case, the original mortgagor will be free of the mortgage obligation and no longer responsible for repayment.
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.
You must pay the mortgage or the lender will take possession of the property by foreclosure.
The mortgage is still a lien against the property. A quit claim deed does not affect the liabilities and liens, which are still the responsibility of the deceased, and therefore, his estate.
Keep in mind that if there was an outstanding mortgage on the property when it was quitclaimed to you then the property is subject to that mortgage. The lender will find the first mortgage when the title is examined and then will decide if there is enough equity in the property to loan more money to you.
He can sign a "quit claim deed". Signing a quit claim deed allows you to deed any of YOUR interest in a property to someone else. To do tha you may want to make sure your father-in-law is off the mortgage first.
The only effective deed is a deed signed by the current owner of the property or in the case of a trust, the current trustee of a trust that owns property. If the owner conveys property by a deed after they have granted a mortgage by a trust deed the property is subject to the mortgage and if it's not paid the lender can take possession of the property.The only effective deed is a deed signed by the current owner of the property or in the case of a trust, the current trustee of a trust that owns property.

Yes. Signing a quitclaim deed will divest you of your ownership in the property. However, it will not divest you of your obligation to pay the mortgage if you also co-signed a mortgage. Also, if there is a mortgage, changes in ownership may trigger a demand for full payment of the note. Review the mortgage document if there is a mortgage.
If your name is on the deed but not the mortgage, it means you own the property but are not responsible for the mortgage payments.

Whoever granted the mortgage to the bank must have owned the property at that time. If they later conveyed the property to a new owner they breached their mortgage agreement with the bank and the new owner took the property subject to the mortgage. The bank can take possession of the property if the mortgage isn't paid.
If there is a mortgage on the property there is most likely a clause that will trigger a demand for payment in full if the property is transferred. You should check your mortgage document.
