Quit Claim Deed
A quit claim deed is a type of deed where a grantor, a
person who owns an interest in a property, transfers all his interests to
someone else. The grantor offers no guarantees about the title to the
recipient, who is called the grantee.
A quit claim deed is often used to clear up problems with
a title or when someone wants to use a simple method to give up all
interests in a property.

Property Deeds That Transfer Title to Real Estate
Property deeds are legal instruments that are used to assign
ownership of real property, to transfer title to the land and its
improvements such as a house. Words used to convey property transfer
may be grant, assign, convey or warrant, but they basically all do
the same thing, they transfer the interest of the person selling the
house to the person buying the house.
If you go to your county courthouse, or where property deeds are
recorded, you can look up the history of all property deeds (and
other matters affecting title such as loans and releases of those
loans) in very large and heavy books. Today, of course, transfers
are recorded electronically, but all title is recorded from the day
the U. S. Patent was issued in those books.

Before you sign the Quit Claim Deed . . .
A quit claim transfers only the rights of the
person signing the deed. It does not guarantee that other people
don't have an interest in the property. If there are other
owners, their ownership is not affected by the quit claim.
Save yourself time, expense, and headache by thoroughly
checking out your agreement!
