mortgage question after divorce

[andy177]

Washington state.

I was recently divorced. As part of the agreement my former wife received the family house. Since the divorce was final I have processed a quick claim deed and removed my name from the mortgage ( Citimortgage ), however I now understand that I am still responsible for the loan if my former wife defaults. How can I have my responsibility removed if she is not willing to assume the loan or refinance the house?

Thanks

Andy
