Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Quit Claim Deed

My wife and I closed on a new home this week. I wish to transfer the deed to her name only for personal reasons, via a Quit Claim Deed. When filling out the form, do I list both of us and Grantors and her only as Grantee, or just myself as Grantor and her as Grantee?? Also, I recently had a legal name change. If I wanted to change the deed to reflect my new name, how would I do this via a Quit Claim Deed, who will be named as Grantor and Grantee's? ANy way of geeting around paying Doc Stamps by placing consideration value at zero, even if mortgage exists?

You have too many questions. If you need the assistance of an attorney, I recommend that you hire a local attorney, as he or she will need to review your current deed.

Read your mortgage agreement. Will your lender let you give up title without having the mortgage come due? You should have an attorney handle this. Good luck.
