A quick definition of Quitclaim deed:

A quitclaim deed is a legal document that allows someone to transfer their ownership interest in a piece of property to someone else. However, unlike a warranty deed, the person transferring the ownership interest does not make any promises or guarantees about the quality of the title or ownership rights. Essentially, it means that the person transferring the ownership interest is giving up any claim they may have to the property, but they are not guaranteeing that the property is free from any liens or other issues.

A more thorough explanation:

A quitclaim deed is a legal document used to transfer ownership of a property from one person to another. The person transferring the property is called the grantor, and the person receiving the property is called the grantee.

Unlike a warranty deed, a quitclaim deed does not guarantee that the grantor has clear ownership of the property. Instead, it simply transfers whatever interest the grantor has in the property to the grantee. This means that if there are any issues with the title, the grantee will not be able to hold the grantor responsible.

For example, if John owns a piece of property but is not sure if he has clear title, he could use a quitclaim deed to transfer the property to his friend, Jane. If it turns out that John did not have clear title, Jane would not be able to sue John for damages.

Another example would be if a couple gets divorced and one spouse wants to transfer their interest in the marital home to the other spouse. They could use a quitclaim deed to do this, but the spouse receiving the property would need to do their own research to make sure there are no issues with the title.
