A: You can agree to accept a sum in order to get off the loan and the title. After you're paid the money, you can sign a quitclaim deed. I wouldn't recommend doing this without a lawyer.

A: I agree with attorney Edwards in that you should not do this without a lawyer. You should get an appraisal on the property to determine the amount of equity in the home before agreeing to any buyout amount.

A: If you have been served with divorce papers, you should hire an attorney. They can assist you with obtaining your fair share of any real property. I would urge you not to sign anything representing yourself.
