Q: a quit claim deed was filed in georgia 2013 from a divorce
If the spouse that has ownership refuses to refinance to remove the other parties name, what can be done? Also in 2014 the ownership added another person to a separate quit claim deed but not mortgage. What do i do to remove myself from financial responsibilities.
A:
This depends on what your divorce says. The divorce decree has to require that the other person remove you from the mortgage. If so, that provision can be enforced.
