We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

How many people can you put on a quitclaim deed?

You can put as many people as you want as grantees on a quit claim deed. However, the problem with putting all of your children on the property as 1% owners is that you would be giving each of your children a veto power if you want to sell or mortgage the condo.

What are the requirements for a California quitclaim deed?

A valid California quitclaim deed must include the full names of both the person giving the property (grantor) and the person receiving it (grantee), plus a complete legal description of the property, including the Assessor Parcel Number. The deed must clearly state that youre quitclaiming the property.

Who benefits the most from a quitclaim deed?

The quitclaim deed simply transfers any interest they may have to the other party. Because of the lack of title guarantees, quitclaim deeds are most often used to transfer property between two parties who know and trust each other, such as family members.

What are the risks of a quitclaim?

However, this approach has certain risks, so its not always the best option. Using a quitclaim deed might create tax issues or result in a loss of control of the property after the transfer. Additionally, the property could still require probate if you dont handle the transfer correctly.

Can you add multiple people to a deed?

The best way is to create a new deed listing all of the owners as joint tenants with rights of survivorship. If you simply add someone to your current deed, they become a co-owner, but they may not have rights of survivorship, and the property may still need to go through probate.
