Hello, I need to remove my ex husbands name from the deed of my home. Can I use a Quitclaim deed for this in Texas?

I understand your situation. Have you and your ex-husband already agreed on removing his name from the deed?

Yes, I was granted sole ownership in our devoice decree.

Are there any specific reasons or concerns you have about using a Quit Claim form in Texas for this purpose?

No, I am trying to get a home equity loan and they suggested quit claim form.

Is there anything else the Real Estate Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they'll be able to help with removing your ex-husband's name from the deed.

No, I am trying to file on my own without having to come out of pocket.
