Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Arizona
Ex-Girl Friend My House Title. She wants half.
Now we are splitting up. We are not married, but we have been living together
since April 2001. We have not children. I�ve since discovered that she has
problem with drugs.
She told me she wants half of the condo. Is she entitled?
I have all my original purchase agreements and I can clearly show that the
money flowed from the sale my house into my bank account, then from my
bank account to the escrow account for the purchase of the condo. She was
not on any of the banking accounts
First, is she really entitled to half the condo, just because her name is on the
title? How can I protect myself?

Re: Ex-Girl Friend My House Title. She wants half.
It's a little late to protect yourself now. You cannot sell or mortgage the property without her signature. You must have intended for her to have one-half of the property, you put her name on the title. Now she has it. You might be able to claim a lien for improvements, but that might take a lawsuit. I can't give a complete opinion without knowing all facts and seeing all documents, but you might be adsived to cut your losses and sell, or buy her out. If you need hired help by an attorney you can call us.
