Question: My husband quit claimed house to his brother before we were married but never had it recorded. Now he has quit claimed to me. Is this going to make me legally the owner with my husband or does it belong to his brother legally?

Answer: A quit claim is a transfer of ownership. Once someone quit claims a deed to another party, that new party is the owner of the property. The original party is no longer the owner and has no authority to transfer ownership again.
