He wants to take his name off of the deed so I can be 100% titled to house.(He is moving) Can this be accomplished with a quit claim deed? What would be the correct steps to take? Thank you in advance.

Without knowing a significant amount of additional information and document review it is impossible to provide a meaningful answer. This is also something that would be well beyond the scope of a free consultation, so you should expect to pay for about an hour of attorney time. With modern... Read more »

If the property is owned in Joint Tenancy with Rights of... Read more »

If the Will is valid the Court will admit the most recent recently executed Will. The Will could be challenged if there is any concern for undue influence, capacity or fraud.

He can quitclaim deed the property from himself to both of you with survivorship rights. If he's not willing to sign a quitclaim deed, then it gets more complicated.

No, don't sign the warranty deed. And the agreement probably is not adequate either. A mortgage note secured by a mortgage is the proper way of doing this. You need to consult with an attorney.
I haven't had income for a few years, would I be allowed on the title? Am I responsible for payments as a co signer then? We've been together 12 years but been renting. Is common law still a thing in NY? I'm female and he's male. I just need some advice before I sign papers. Thanks

Possibly neither.
Don't sign anything without speaking with counsel first and perhaps a quick review of documents at no charge.
Have a free telephone consultation with counsel.
Please call me, any day or night, up until 11:00 pm.

Having been accused of violence in the course of breaking up a fight doesn't sound like discrimination on the basis of being in a suspect category (race, etc.). So, unless the mobile home park's agreement proves otherwise, they can get rid of you.

Grantee's mailing address is wrong rather than the address of the property conveyed? There's no issue if it was some sort of scriveners error in the address. You can file a corrective deed.

You might want to hire an attorney in the County where your Mother died to conduct a title search and examine the Court filings. He can then advise what you may want to do, or that you are already an heir at law.
