on10/21/98 my divorce was finalized....during the legal separation process I have a court order that states that the property is to be transfered over to my name only and that I be soley responsible for taxes, insurance payments, and mortgage...now 8 years later mmy ex husband is threaten to take the house from me and my new family...I never was able to take his name off the mortgage...can I legaly take his name off the mortgage now 8 years later? but I am not sure if i can or not...meanwhile I have paid so much in to this house for the last 8 years (mortgage and maintenance)I dont want to see my ex gain money when he never paid anything on the house...can someone give me some advice? the legal separation states I am supposed to transfer the house into my name. Can I transfer the house into my name with having to get his signature?
If the house was awarded to you, your divorce settlement should contain a requirement that he sign a quit claim deed at your request. You can get that paperwork from your lender. If he refuses to sign, you'll need to go back to court and charge him with comtempt.
These orders don't expire. It took my ex 1 year to present me with a quit claim on the house and 4 years before she asked me to sign her car over to her.
