Doesn't the house have to be paid off in order to obtain it by quit claim deed? If there is a mortgage on it I am pretty sure that you would have to obtain a new loan because you will be liable for the balance owed.

as far as estate taxes or gift taxes you should consult a tax expert, but if you want to change the name in the title call the title company and have them send you the proper documentation for you to notarize it. I hope the home does not have a loan against it.
Her thinking is wrong. DON'T do this until you get advice from an estate lawyer or financial advisor. For one thing, you (the heir) don't pay %26quot;inheritance taxes.%26quot; You also will screw up the tax basis on which you acquire the house.
Hmm well I would talk to a banker about it if you want to change the deed but if you want to get around tax... then you should find a lawyer that handles that kind of stuff
she needs to get a title company to execute a QUIT CLAIM DEED of Trust. and entitle you as a joint tenant with rights of survivorship
