Quitclaim + warranty deeds

Transfer property title. Quitclaim or warranty deed.

Property deed transfers happen for many reasons: removing an ex-spouse after divorce, adding or removing a family member, contributing to an LLC for asset protection, gift to heirs, removing a refinanced co-borrower. The right deed type (quitclaim vs. warranty) and proper recording determine whether the transfer is effective. We draft the deed, coordinate signing and notarization, and record with the county.

FAQ

About the Property Deed Transfer Service.

What is a quitclaim deed?
A quitclaim deed transfers whatever interest a person has in real property to someone else without any warranty that the title is good, so it conveys the grantor's interest as-is. It is common between family, into an entity, or to clear a cloud on title. We keep your property entity organized so transfers are clean.
When is a quitclaim deed used?
Commonly to transfer property between family members, move a property into an LLC or trust, clear a title defect, or transfer interests in a divorce, where the parties trust each other and a full warranty is not needed. We flag when it fits and structure the receiving entity.
How is a quitclaim different from a warranty deed?
A quitclaim conveys only whatever interest the grantor has with no guarantee of clear title, while a warranty deed guarantees the title is good and defends against claims, which is why arm's-length sales use warranty deeds. We flag which deed fits your transfer so you use the right one.
Does a quitclaim deed guarantee clear title?
No: it transfers only the interest the grantor actually has, if any, with no warranty, so the recipient takes the risk that the title has problems, which is why it suits trusted transfers rather than purchases. We flag this so a quitclaim is used only where the lack of warranty is acceptable.
Can I use a quitclaim to move property into my LLC?
Yes, it is a common way to transfer property you own into a property LLC, though you should first check lender and title-insurance implications and any transfer tax. We sequence the transfer and flag those issues so moving the property in does not create problems.
Does transferring property affect my mortgage?
It can: a transfer, even by quitclaim into your own LLC, may trigger a due-on-sale clause, so telling your lender first matters. We flag the lender step so a property transfer does not inadvertently create a loan problem.
Should I involve a title company or attorney?
Often yes: while a quitclaim is simple, recording it correctly and understanding the title and tax implications benefits from a title company or attorney, especially for valuable property. We keep the entity side handled and flag where professional help fits the transfer.
Does a quitclaim affect property taxes?
It can: transfers may trigger reassessment or transfer taxes depending on the state and whether ownership really changed, so checking first matters. We flag the tax implications so a transfer into your entity does not bring an unexpected reassessment.
Can File.Business help me hold property in an entity?
We form the property-holding LLC, structure ownership, and flag the deed, lender, title, and tax steps involved in moving property into it, so your real estate is held in a clean, protected structure rather than in your personal name.
