Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Home Title/Deed Transfer in Florida
I currently own a home in Florida (3 1/2 years). The deed is in my name. I live with my boyfriend for 8 years.
I don't qualify for Homestead exemption as I am a Canadian working legally on a work visa.
(1) Can I transfer the deed to my boyfriend who is American?
(2) Will that qualify us for a homestead exemption?
(a) If both our names are on the deed.
(b) If only his name is on the deed.
