How do I transfer my house deeds to my ex

[Ricfor]

I bought a house with my ex Fiance 4 years ago and we have since split, I want nothing to do with the house, we have already had a settlement figure on the house ( she basically bought me out ) and now I want the house out my name and in hers soley.

This should be something that she should be more concerned about.  She needs to contact a solicitor ta apply to HM land registry to get your name removed from the deeds.

No, it's not like that. How you do this depends upon whether or not there is a mortgage on the property. To save a lot of unnecessary typing, if you would care to say I will reply indicating how to go about a name change for your specific situation.

Whoever arranged her buying you out should have arranged the removal of your name from the deeds at the time.  It doesn't matter whether there is still a mortgage but obviously the lender has an interest in how the new 'owner' will finance the mortgage if there is one.  Go back to the legal person who arranged your settlement in the first place.  If there was no legal person then, presumably, you have no settlement at all.  Get help, go see a solictor!

It's called a Transfer of Equity, you should contact a solicitor.  Probably cost about �250 + VAT

It is exactly as I have stated, nothing different.

U need to do this through a solicitor by what is called a "transfer of equity".  If there is a mortgage on the property in your joint names then you will need the Bank/Building Societys authority for your name to be removed off the title deeds and the mortgage to be transferred in to her sole name.  If she has already paid you money for your share of the house but your name is still on the deeds and mortgage then you need to act quickly as by law you are still responsible for the property and any loans/mortgages secured over it.  Best advice is - get proper legal advice.

That is not right.
