Refi to remove ex's name and add joint tenant...What is the name of your state? MA I have been divorced about two years. I am in the process of refinancing to remove my ex's name from the mortgage and add my boyfriend's name. We have applied jointly so both of our names will be on the new mortgage. My question is about the deed. My ex's lawyer said that we should do two deeds. One for my ex to sign the property over to me alone and then one for me and my boyfriend to sign so that we are both listed on the deed. Is this correct? I realize the issues we could have if I am the only one on the deed, since we are co-borrowers, so this makes sense, I just wanted a second opinion. And are there any other major differences between being tenants is common and joint tenants w/right of survivorship besides equal and unequal shares? It's confusing to me. Any other major issues we could encounter that I should be ready for? Thank you! |

| add my boyfriend's name Bad idea. We have applied jointly so both of our names will be on the new mortgage. Worse idea. If you insist on doing this, then follow the requirements of the lender and the title company.

| I am aware of the potential risks and problems/issues in joint ownership of property while unmarried. If I wanted advice on that I would have posted such. Thanks for the info on the joint ownership/unmarried section. I will check it out. |
