A Quitclaim Deed is the simplest way to transfer property from one owner (the grantor) to another (the grantee). This legal document conveys whatever interest the grantor has in a piece of property without any warranties or guarantees; therefore, any property transferred through a quitclaim deed is given “as-is.”A quitclaim deed can also be drafted without a title search or title insurance. Quitclaim deeds are most often used for land and home transfers that do not involve any money-changing hands.This type of deed would not likely be deemed acceptable by a financial institution that is lending the funds for a mortgage.
