  • First of all, I am NOT an attorney. In my experience with property ownership, it depends HOW you are added in the title ie joint tenancy or if you are only granted a percentage of the property. If he wants to add you to the title, make sure you go to a reputable title company and get it property notarized and recorded so that there are no misunderstandings in the future with the trust beneficiaries.

    If the owner of a property in California adds someone to the title with a deed, that someone is now part owner.

    Just make sure there is an appendage to you being put on the title. Write something up stating your role as co-owner. Basically how much money you are putting in toward morgage. With those facts stated, they will surely go along with you being put on title as co-owner. *Hope this helps.:)
