A quitclaim deed transfers whatever interest the grantor holds in a property to the grantee, without any warranty that the title is valid or free of other claims — commonly used between family members, to clear up a title issue, or to add/remove a spouse from a property title. This generator builds a standard quitclaim deed from the property description, parties, and consideration.
Because a quitclaim deed offers no title guarantee, it's typically used when the parties already know and trust each other, rather than for an arm's-length property sale, where a warranty deed is more common.
How it works
Enter the grantor (transferring the property) and grantee (receiving it), describe the property and its county/state, and optionally enter a consideration amount (leave blank for a transfer made for love and affection rather than payment). The generator builds a complete deed and lets you download it as a PDF.
- Enter the grantor and grantee details.
- Describe the property and its location.
- Generate the deed and download the notarization-ready PDF.
Examples
Adding a spouse to a title
A homeowner quitclaims a half-interest in their property to their spouse after marriage, for love and affection rather than a stated payment.
Transferring property between family members
A parent quitclaims a vacation property to their adult child, with the property description referencing the recorded legal description.
Who should use it
- Adding or removing a spouse from a property title.
- Transferring property between family members without a sale.
Industry applications
- Residential real estate and family property transfers
- Estate and title planning
Advantages
- Builds a standard quitclaim deed structure quickly.
- Handles both paid transfers and transfers for love and affection.
- No account, subscription or watermark.
Limitations
- Offers no title warranty — not appropriate for an arm's-length property sale.
- Recording requirements and fees vary by county and aren't handled by this tool.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using a quitclaim deed for an arm's-length sale where a warranty deed would better protect the buyer.
- Forgetting to record the deed with the county recorder's office after signing.
- Providing an incomplete or informal property description instead of the full legal description.
Best practices
- Use the full legal description of the property, not just a street address, when available.
- Have the deed signed in front of a notary public.
- Record the deed with the county recorder's office promptly after signing.
Tips
- Use the property's full legal description from the existing deed or county records, if available.
- Confirm your county recorder's specific filing requirements and fees before submitting.
