Well, you would execute a new deed transferring the property from you alone to you and the other person.  But I would do nothing unless you speak with an attorney.  Besides the reasons you are doing this (and understanding that you are giving up half of your interest in sonething that is yours alone) you need to discuss how you wish to hold the property legally.  Good luck.

Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
