Deed to Mother

  if my brother do a quick deed with my mother, and give her permission to take on the mortgage and when the mortgage is paid off the the house will be legally her ? This house is in Albany,Ga....
 
  If your brother signs a deed naming your mother as the new owner, the house will be hers immediately.  But once there is a new owner, the mortgage company may very well call in the whole loan at once.  They usually do that when there's a change in ownership.  Better check with them before doing anything.
