Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Quick claim title validity
My girlfriend and I owned seperate homes.We decided to sell her home and she was to buy into half of mine.Under recomendation from her title company we filled out a quick claim deed but it was not to be notorized and recorded until closing when she would have her money for half.After living there for 5 months we broke up.She decided not to purchase my home and recently moved to another state.I have since found out the deed was notarized and recorded at the courthouse without my consent or being present.She is now on my title but not on my mortgage,never put any money into the house.She claims she owns half of my house.Is the quick claim deed valid?Is she half owner?

Re: Quick claim title validity
That is for a judge to rule on, but it sounds like you have a valid claim. You must bring an action to quiet title. Good luck.
