Question

How can I add a person's name to a house deed?

Answer 1

u can file lien agst the property for the amount invested.....you would have a subordinate position to the bank's lien (and any other prior liens). otherwise, file a quit claim after closing, but u really don't need to be on the deed to be protected.

Answer 2

Talk to a lawyer and a title company

Answer 3

Names are added through the county clerk and recorder. They manipulate the deed or file quit claims, etc. But I don't think that is the situation you are in. Like above, contact professionals. The money spent is well worth it to protect yourself.

Answer 4

Before the closing, have the owners of the property prepare a deed from the current owners, as sellers, to you AND the current owners, as buyers. Give the deed to the title company to hold in escrow until the mortgage has closed. Then have them record the deed immediately after the closing.
