A: Real property transactions are usually high stakes, relative to the net worth of most people. And mistakes can be VERY EXPENSIVE to fix, often involving litigation years down the road. Do yourself a huge favor and hire an attorney to advise you. A Quitclaim deed might not be the best choice. It depends on a lot of factors. This is not a do-it-yourself project. Spend $500 now to save $50,000 in the future. (Amounts are estimate only. Fees vary by attorney and region.)

A: It's actually a "Quit" Claim Deed and I never recommend them. Please take the advice of the previous attorney and consult with an attorney familiar with deeds.
