Q: Ex got house in divorce but im responsible for mortgage she's on deed not mortgage been seven years.
Now she wants me to Fill new paperwork out stating if I pass away the house goes to her why would she need that?
A:
She doesn’t need that. The special warranty deed you signed at the time of your divorce already conveys 100% ownership of the house to her.
You might want to investigate if the deed work from your divorce case was properly recorded. It sounds like someone thinks the house is still recorded in your name. That could cause you trouble in the future with taxes, utilities, easements etc
