Typically, when a marital residence is subject to a mortgage loan but is awarded to one spouse in divorce proceedings, the dispossessed spouse signs a "Special Warranty Deed" conveying their interest in the residence to the spouse to whom the residence is awarded, and that spouse in turn signs a "Deed of Trust to Secure Assumption" of the mortgage debt.  You should contact the attorney who handled your divorce proceeding to ensure that the appropriate ancillary documents were properly executed and recorded in the Deed Records.
