A deed, of course, is a legal document representing property ownership. But you might be wondering if an owner can transfer a deed to another person without a real estate lawyer. The answer is yes.

A quitclaim deed transfers the ownership interest the grantor/seller has in the real estate but makes no promises or guarantees about what that interest is or that title is good. Quitclaim deeds are most commonly used to clear up title problems, to transfer property between spouses after a divorce, or in informal transactions between friends or family members.
