Question

How do I add myself to the deed on the house? My husband is in agreement; it's a matter of logistics. FYI we don't have a will although that is on the "to do" list.

Answer

Your husband must execute a quit-claim deed from him to you and himself. I'd need a copy of the deed into your husband, your names and social security numbers (I'm assuming your addresses are the same as the property). The cost is $125 for the lawyer and $58 for the recording fee with the town clerk. For the wills, I'd need to talk with you.
