What is a Quitclaim Deed?

A Quitclaim Deed transfers ownership of real property from one party to another, and it is most often used for transfers that do not involve a sale or purchase of the property.

It offers little protection to the person receiving the interest, so it is most often used between family members who have already established trust (such as gifting a house to a close relative).

When can you use a Quitclaim Deed?

• You are passing your rights in a piece of property to a spouse or ex-spouse.
• You are gifting your property to another person or family member.
• You are transferring ownership in a property to a trust.
• You are correcting the spelling of a name in a previous deed.
• You are changing tenancy (how the property is owned) between owners.
• You are clarifying if the property is community or separate property after marriage.
• You own a business and you want to buy or sell real property.
