Woman Signing Contact While Holding Her Daughter

Seller Ownership Issue

The Seller lived in her home for over 15 years. After recently remarrying, she decided it was time to sell and move out of state. She met a friendly realtor who helped her list the home and within a few weeks the home was under contract and proceeding to closing… until the title search came back.

The title search showed that the Seller purchased the home 15 years ago with her ex-husband. The two divorced and the Seller received the home as part of the divorce settlement.

To comply with the court order and save a few bucks, the ex-husband made his own deed (Google makes everything so easy!) that *almost* transferred his ownership interest in the home to the Seller. Unfortunately, the ex-husband missed a few important parts on his “Quick Claims Deed” and his ownership interest never legally transferred to the Seller, who was now unable to sell her home to the Buyer, until…

With the help of an A. R. Pike Law Firm attorney, a correct deed was created and the ex-husband was tracked down. When he was informed of his legal obligation to correct his mistake and the consequences of refusing, he quickly signed the new deed, which was recorded. Now the Seller had clear title and could sell her home!
