I have a joint tenancy/quit claim deed with my daughter. She is filing for bankruptcy and her attorney wants me to remove it until after the bankruptcy hearing. The quit claim deed is on file with the county register of deeds.How do I go about removing or nullifying the quit claim deed?
State/Country relating to Question: Michigan Already Tried: Looked for old paperwork because I had to do this the last time I refinanced - think the mortgage company did it and didn't give me a copy.
You would have to file a new deed - from both you and your daughter - to just you. You could use a quitclaim deed form to do this. Thereafter, one the quitclaim deed is prepared you would have to file it at the Recorder of Deeds.
So, it would go like this:
Grantors - you and your daughter
to
Grantee - just you
The attorney should be able to draft a new quitclaim deed for $50 to $100. Thereafter you would have to pay to file it - cost around $40.00.
