Quick Guide to Quitclaim Deeds

What It Is: A quitclaim deed transfers property ownership without guaranteeing the ownership status, which is ideal for trusted relationships.

Common Use: It is often used among family members or close relations for transactions that do not involve a monetary exchange.

How It Works: The owner (grantor) passes the property interest to a recipient (grantee) with no promise of a clear title.

Risk: If there are title defects, the grantor isn't liable for any loss to the grantee.

Situations for Use:

  • Transferring family property

  • Changing title due to marriage or divorce

  • Addressing trust or inheritance matters

  • Clearing title defects

Other Deed Types: For ownership guarantees, consider using a warranty deed instead.

Creating the Deed:

  1. Identify the grantor and grantee(s).

  2. State the consideration (often nominal, like $10, for formality).

  3. Provide a detailed property description.

Mortgage Impact: A quitclaim deed does not affect mortgage obligations.

Post completion:

  • The deed must be notarized

  • It should be filed with local authorities to become a public record.

Permanency: Once filed, the deed is permanent unless legally challenged.
