Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Arizona

I have the deed to my house in my name, but the mortagage is still in my ex's name. I was wondering if I have a time limit for switching the mortgage in to my name? Also, will the deed fall back into his name if I can't switch the mortage in time? Thank you for answering my question. With that being answered, can he take any actions with the mortgage such as cancelling etc. or am I ok as long as I pay the mortgage until I am capable of getting my own loan?

You would need to refinance the loan to have his name is removed. You should be fine as long as the mortgage is paid. You would need to deed the property to him for his name to be on title.
