Would like to take a name off of a deed

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
This is very easy.  It will require the preparation of a deed called a quitclaim deed.  The property will go from both parties names, into one party, and both parties will have to sign the deed.  The cost for this is approximately $500 if you have a copy of the recorded original deed.

Can a child avoid estate and inheritance taxes in the state of New Jersey by becoming a co-owner of a house while the parent is still alive?

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
First you have to look at the total value of the estate.  Estate tax is imposed on estates with a total value over $675,000.  You look at all of the assets in the estate and then deduct certain costs and expenses like funeral costs, attorney's fees, etc.  If the total amount remaining after the deductions is over $675,000 then you will pay tax.  If you become a joint owner of the house, then when you sell it you will pay capital gains tax on the difference between the sales price and the price your mother bought the house for in the 1980.  Balancing those two taxes out, I would say leave the house in mom's name and pay the estate tax - its less than you will pay in capital gains.  You will not pay inheritance taxes because you are Class A beneficiaries as children of the decedent.

How can I take my daughter's name off the deed to my house.

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Your daughter will have to sign off on a new deed.  There is no way to just "take" her name off the deed without her consent and cooperation.
