Can I remove myself from a deed using a quitclaim deed?

I co-signed for my son's mortgage in 2008. I am still on the deed and would like to be removed. I assume I can accomplish this by submitting a Quitclaim Deed form to the county. I know I'm still on the mortgage, but would like to be off the deed.

Can I use a TODD to transfer ownership between tenants in common?

I am co-owner of my home with a friend, and we are filed tenants in common. We are completing the transfer on death deed, where if something happened to either of us, the house would be transferred to the other. Would we have one document with both of us as beneficiaries, or do we need two separate documents, where each of us are individually the beneficiary?

My TODD was rejected because my name didn’t match my signature, what do I do?

The state of Hawaii rejected my Transfer on Death Deed because my signature does not include my middle name. But the notary hand-printed my full name on the notarized page, even though I signed using just the middle initial. My driver’s license is my ID. It also has my full name printed on it, but I signed it with just the middle initial. What is the best legal way to correct this? Is there a way to indicate that both ways are me?

[IN] Can I use a land contract to buy property from a family member?

My father-in-law wants to sell his old house to my wife and me, but wants to save us mortgage interest by paying him directly. I want to take all the hassle of owning the home off his shoulders. Are there any means of transaction that would allow my wife and me to pay the property taxes? As far as I can find, Indiana State law doesn’t acknowledge title transfer on a lease-to-own or land contract until the wholesale price is paid.
