How do I add my spouse to my deed in Delaware? You will need to have the quitclaim deed docHubd with the signatures of you and your spouse. Once this is done, the quitclaim deed replaces your former deed and the property officially is in both of your names. You must record the deed at your county office.
Risk for the Buyer: The most significant disadvantage of Limited Warranty Deeds, especially under Missouri law, is their risk to the buyer. Since this type of deed only warrants against title defects arising during the grantors period of ownership, any issues from before this period become the buyers responsibility.
Typically associated with real estate, joint tenancy warranty deeds are used when two or more parties come together simultaneously to take ownership of a property. The most common example of this type of deed is for unmarried couples buying a property together.
Self-filing the deed without an attorney is the most economical option for transferring real property title. However, it requires careful attention to detail. The Registers Office wont provide assistance or highlight mistakes in the paperwork.
The simplest way to add a spouse to a deed is through a quitclaim deed. This type of deed transfers whatever ownership rights you have so that you and your spouse now become joint owners. No title search or complex transaction is necessary. The deed will list you as the grantor and you and your spouse as grantees.

Both the grantor and the grantee must sign it, usually in the presence of a notary. Then the deed must be filed in the county registrars office to be legally enforceable. Once filed, the legal transfer of the property is complete.
No, a warranty deed does not prove ownership. A title search is the best way to prove that a grantor rightfully owns a property. The warranty deed is a legal document that offers the buyer protection. In other words, the property title and warranty deed work in tandem together.
In New York, property transfers must be recorded with the county where the property is located. This step is important because it provides public notice of the property transfer and ensures that the grantees ownership is legally recognized. When filing the deed, you will need to pay a filing fee to the county clerk.
