Re: trying to sell my house
There are two things to discuss here. First, the quitclaim deed will likely need to be redone. Second, as for the party that doesn't want to sign anything, their interest will need to be extinguished. If they can sign away their five percent, then you can do this inexpensively. If they still refuse to sign, then you can institute a motion to partition the property, which is basically a court order forcing the sale.
There may be some other remedies available to you, depending on the facts fo the case.
