San Antonio, TX asked in Real Estate Law for Texas

Q: how do I go about getting my name off the loan deed off a house that me and ex own?

We purchased a home back in 2015 and I moved out due to some issues with her and now I don't want my name on the home. We tried selling the home but she's being real difficult with the process. I need help with this matter so I could get my credit and name back to where it was before.

A: Either seek to enforce your divorce decree if applicable or perhaps, seek clarification on property and debts and/or possible modification (although doubt Court has jurisdiction). This really depends on what your divorce decree states. I suggest contacting your divorce lawyer for an explanation or taking your decree to another attorney for a consultation.
