Glad your Hawaii break was good, sometimes it's great to just chill and leave everything behind, even if just for a few days. Hope you get that PMA back where it needs to be, too.
In reading your post, something came to mind - and if I'm missing something, let me know because it's certainly a possiblity. I can't understand why he would need for you to sign a quitclaim on a property HE is purchasing, unless he was using your credit to help get the loan. Or to put it another way, there's no reason he can't go and get a loan and buy a house on his own with you being left completely out of the transaction (from a financial perspective); it would simply mean that the loan, and the property was his and his alone. If he is trying to use you as an "unknowning cosigner," then you'll get the credit liability associated with the loan, but would be signing away any physical claim to the property - a really bad situation for you should the loan default or foreclose. It just seems really fishy. You might dig in further and more specifically as to WHY EXACTLY you would need to sign a quitclaim if this is his purchase and his alone.
Good luck- Kev
