I would like to have all our names on the deed. How do I fill out a quitclaim deed form which says "sell, release, remise, quit claim and convey unto" (blank)...do I need a form for each child or just one with all our names on it?

Hi Chenise, thanks for your question, and sorry I have been slow at answering your other questions. I will get to them all as soon as I can and do my best to give you the best general advice I can. I am assuming in this case that you are acquiring property and the grantor (the person giving you the deed) is giving it to you via a quitclaim deed. Essentially a quitclaim deed releases any interest the grantor had in the property but does not come with any guarantees as to title like a general warranty deed would. Assuming the grantor is giving you the property, all you would need to do is make sure all the grantees (you and your children) are named on the form. I don't think you would need separate forms as that should be unnecessary. You would probably need to get this done in front of a notary, and then act to record your deed with the county recording office where the property is located. If on the other hand you are the owner of the property and you are conveying it to your children, you would convey it with all of their names on the deed, but at the point of conveyance you would be getting rid of your interest in the property. If you would rather give an interest in your property to all your children yet still retain control of it during life, you can arrange to make the transfer of your property to all of your children in a will or potentially through a trust. Hope this helps! I should be getting to the rest of your questions soon and will try to get a few more lawyers' input as well. Especially with real property transfers, you might want to check in with a local lawyer in your state to make sure everything is done correctly. |
