Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
Quit Claim Deed
I have mortgage for a property in my name. My mother was supposed to refinance it into her name. She told me the lender needed me to sign a quit claim deed that would only be filed at closing. The closing never occured but she filed the deed anyway. Can I still sell the property or let someone payoff the loan and obtain ownership? I need options to get out of this property.

Re: Quit Claim Deed
There may be some options available for you. If you are interested in discussing them, contact my office to arrange a consultation and be prepared to bring copies of your current mortgage(s) and deeds, as well as any signed agreements that you may have with your mother.
Re: Quit Claim Deed
There is no mystery to what you describe. You transferred the property to your mother and no longer own it. Thus, you can't sell it since no one would would get clear title. Your first option is probably to get with Mom and agree to fix the situation. You can then see a qualified real estate lawyer (not merely one who solicits any kind of case) to handle the transaction. If that does not work, you can see the lawyer on your own.
