I took a mortgage out to buy my son's foreclosed home. How can I get his name on the documents.
I know his credit is not great and he does not have the money at this time to take out a mortgage on his own. He and his family have been paying the mortgage and taxes on the home since I took the mortgage out. Is there a way to legally have him on this mortgage without having him have to pay anything? If the home is appraised at 280,000 and I owe 180,000 on the home can I gift him the equity without having to pay a ton of taxes on the gift? How does a gift of equity work? by tari.schauer642 from Chicago, Illinois. Jun 8th 2021

You didn't mention how long ago the property was foreclosed on, that could have a bearing on what options are available for your son. Under current rules, gifting of equity is not likely to have any tax ramification on you today, but could impact you negatively in the future, depending on the size of your estate. If the property Is located in Illinois, I can personally help you.
