I own (did own) a house with my ex. he was bugging me to sign a quitclaim and I finally got him to agree to not do it. But, yesterday he went to the bank to talk about buying the lot next door to us but they said order to add a piece of land to our house & lot we already have and keep it all as one loan, the bank said I had to sign a quitclaim since we aren't and never were married. I wasn't going to sign, but we had a horrible argument about it and I finally signed (while crying) and he had said we could get my name back on. We just had to do it like this real quick. He also agreed that when it came time that I would sign a quitclaim for good, we would have an agreement drawn up between us (basically like a divorce for a nonmarried couple). I keep asking him now when my name can be put back on and he says he doesn't have the money to put my name back on. He instead wants to go do this agreement today, but doesn't want me to get it done by a lawyer, but rather we type it up ourselves and just have it notarized after we sign it. Isn't it better to get this agreement drawn up by a layer? How much would it be to add my name back onto the deed of the house?
