Some questions I have: 1) If a divorced couple who both have their names on the title do a quitclaim to remove the wife from the title, then is the grantor both the husband and wife, and who is the grantee. 2) Does the leaving spouse use the words 'quitclaim all my interests" or "quitclaim 100% of my interests"? 3) If the leaving spouse is not expecting to get paid, then does there have to be some monetary consideration in order to make the deed executable?
If a quitclaim deed is used to remove a Grantee. what other forms are needed to go with it? Like Land transfer form and an Affidavit filled out by grantee to wave their rights to property???
So once the quit claim deed is recorded after it is signed by both parties, how soon does the granters name get removed from the title so that the title is now put into the grantees name
Wrong my moms name was on it but had to present the death certificate to get it taken off then it was solely in my name since i was the only grantee on the quitclaim deed.My four worthless siblings tried to fight but since it was a quitclaim they could not LMAO!!The granters name stays on till death.
At what point is a quick claim deed turned into a normal deed after a sale has been made on a property or land? When you buy land for example, how and what do you look for in the deed, contract paperwork, to make sure you don't get screwed?
Hello there, apologies for the delay in responding. While we are unable to provide legal advice for your specific situation, here are some thoughts: Unfortunately, a quit claim deed does not turn into another type of deed with the passage of time. A quit claim deed only guarantees that the seller, and only the seller, is giving up claims to the property. It's possible that there is a third party out there, or perhaps several, with claims to the land. A quit claim deed won't protect against these claims. In terms of what to look for, the existence of other claims won't necessarily be found in the deed itself. For this, it is generally necessary to contact a title search company, or the local county recorder's office.

Hey Eforms! great video. I just had a question about quitclaim deeds. If a quitclaim deed is usually used to clear up an imperfection in a title otherwise known as a cloud on title. And assuming that a cloud on title is a circumstance in which the public records are not perfectly clear about who owns or has rights to certain property rights. How exactly does a quitclaim deed clear a cloud on title? Looking forward to hearing back from you guys. Thanks!
Hi there! You can create a new QC deed to correct previous mistakes with the names or the property description, but we believe it may be best to go to a local county recorder and see if they can provide a correction for a deed that has already been recorded. Hope this helps!
@@eFormsOfficial ok example my mothers new loan put it in her name instead of her Name with family Trust. would that be best a correction or a quick claim? I am not sure Riverside county has this in California. They are not helpful there.
What if the owner of a property owes a balance on a promissory note to the heirs (children) of an estate. The deceased (Dad) of the estate gave the deed to the owner with a promissory note. The owner defaulted on the promissory note in the amount of 45K with interest which was owed to the heirs. One of the heirs who is also Executor of the estate wanted to acquire the property back to the family name. So, he entered into a Quit claim, and paid the owner 10K for the property without other heir’s knowledge or consent. What questions should I ask to make sure the Quit Claim was legitimate? Is a Quit Claim appropriate for the above situation. Do the heirs still get the promissory note balance or accelerated interest in the amount of 45K? How do I ensure my amount of equity does not decrease due to bad decisions in the future joint-ownership potential or buy out position ? Can I contest this Quit claim transaction due to my absence?
Im breaking up with a friend a dated for 4 years. We bought a property together. Its both showing on our credit reports and i dont know how going forward i can transfer it over to her and remove it from my credit so i can purchase my future home. This 1/2 million home is keeping me from qualifying for just about anything now. Please help
Hello Duclos! You may be able to transfer the property through this quitclaim process. It depends on whether the potential grantor (in this case your friend) would agree to transferring the full ownership to her name. If that's the case, you may be able to use a quitclaim deed to transfer the property ownership. Now, if your friend is not open to such transfer, it would be best to counsel an attorney to sort out the best possible alternatives. Here is a detailed guide to quitclaim deeds-- click on the link to learn more about the process: eforms.com/deeds/quit-claim/
I wanted to make sure that if my mother passed away I would not have any problem regarding ownership of my two properties. Attorney recommended a quit claim deed. Was that the correct recommendation ?
Hello there, apologies for the delay. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to answer your question without providing legal advice, which we are not permitted to do. All the best with this, and hope it has worked out.
IN THIS, A FINANCAIL CONSERVATOR AND AN AGGRESSIVE RECOVERY ESTATE LAWYER CAN SELL OFF THE HOME OF A DECEASED PERSON WITH DAYS OF THEIR DEATH, WITH OR WITHOUT THE HEIRS KNOWING ABOUT THE SALE. AND REGARDLESS OF IF THERE WAS A WILL LEFT BY THE DECEASED.
Is the person the grantee? If so no problem but if not they will be out in the street as soon as the real grantee realizes they have property its always another sibling even far relatives in some cases
My EX-spouse and I got a uncontested divorce and did not claim the house in the divorce. We are doing a quitclaim deed, changing my married name to maiden name and no money is exchanged and taking his name off. Would the Grantor be MY married name and EX's name and the Grantee my maiden name and how do I do $0 money?
Great video. I currently help my parents pay their mortgage but it's seen as a gift. My name is not attached to the property in any way. If I got them to do a quitclaim to me would that bring me tax benefits?
Yes but only if the house is fully paid off and is in her name only.Have her add your name on the grantee line this will bypass any siblings that might take whats yours
The seller is willing to sell me the property via quit claim deed; however, I just found out that the home has an existing interest only loan on it plus solar panels that will increase property taxes starting Nov 1st 2020. What does that mean for me as the buyer?
That’s a great question and may depend on laws in the area in which you live. Our advice is to reach out to a real estate attorney in your immediate neighborhood.
Hello Chris! The language can often be confusing or unclear. Allow me to clear some of that up for you and any other viewers: Grantor (the “Seller”) - This is the party that owns the property but is in the process of selling. Only the Grantor is required to sign the Quit Claim. Grantee (the “Buyer”) - This the purchasing party that will have their information entered as and should be the individual where the Quit Claim returns to after it has been processed. Encumbrance -- Any claim against a property not made by the owner. For instance, zoning regulations, home-owner associations, and primarily debts (such as a mortgage or other type of lien) affect a property in certain ways-- limiting what the owner can do with that property. Here are more definitions that we made available on our site: eforms.com/deeds/quit-claim/#Definitions

So does the house needs to payed off first?
Generally, the grantor remains liable for the mortgage (unless otherwise determined) -- a QCD only transfers ownership.

Hi Linda, doesn't probate take place to avoid this from happening? sorry, just curious
What do you mean by they do not guarantee that the grantee legally owns the property 0:52
How does a quit claim deed work when the grantor is deceased but there's another family member that lives in the house.
Hi there -- it may be best to get guidance from an attorney for this situation.
Is the person the grantee? If so no problem but if not they will be out in the street as soon as the real grantee realizes they have property its always another sibling even far relatives in some cases
I'm going threw the same thing . 😢
Hello, can I buy a house that has a quit claim deed sale? If yes, what should I do first to make a purchase correctly??? Thank you
You need to define terms.
My EX-spouse and I got a uncontested divorce and did not claim the house in the divorce. We are doing a quitclaim deed, changing my married name to maiden name and no money is exchanged and taking his name off. Would the Grantor be MY married name and EX's name and the Grantee my maiden name and how do I do $0 money?
Hi Shereese! Unfortunately, this is a legal question that we can't answer. We recommend reaching out to your attorney.
can anyone be approved for a quit claim deed or does the buyer have to be approved by the lender?
Great video. I currently help my parents pay their mortgage but it's seen as a gift. My name is not attached to the property in any way. If I got them to do a quitclaim to me would that bring me tax benefits?
i would like to know that too...
My mother wants to leave me her house when she dies. Will this form work?
Yes but only if the house is fully paid off and is in her name only.Have her add your name on the grantee line this will bypass any siblings that might take whats yours
The seller is willing to sell me the property via quit claim deed; however, I just found out that the home has an existing interest only loan on it plus solar panels that will increase property taxes starting Nov 1st 2020. What does that mean for me as the buyer?

@@eFormsOfficial Great. Thanks.
If the seller doesn't own it outright the quitclaim is worthless lol
is this the same in uk?
Hello! This video is made for the U.S. deed process.
The grantor quit claims their property when they can’t afford to pay their mortgage
Grantor? Seller your no help who is grantee and grantor jesus christ
Hello Chris! The language can often be confusing or unclear. Allow me to clear some of that up for you and any other viewers:
Grantor (the “Seller”) - This is the party that owns the property but is in the process of selling. Only the Grantor is required to sign the Quit Claim.
Grantee (the “Buyer”) - This the purchasing party that will have their information entered as and should be the individual where the Quit Claim returns to after it has been processed.
Encumbrance -- Any claim against a property not made by the owner. For instance, zoning regulations, home-owner associations, and primarily debts (such as a mortgage or other type of lien) affect a property in certain ways-- limiting what the owner can do with that property.
Here are more definitions that we made available on our site: eforms.com/deeds/quit-claim/#Definitions
@@eFormsOfficial you are amazingly patience..
Grantor is the Seller (giving up their interest) and Grantee (getting the house, put in their name) is the buyer.
I think this is Siri's sister
Wtf is an encumbances
