Create a Kansas Quit Claim Deed with our customizable template!
In Kansas, a quitclaim deed is a document that allows the owner of a piece of real estate to convey his or her property to a new owner. This document transfers an owner's legal interest on a property to the new owner without any form of guarantee that the property title is clear of any encumbrances.
The types of transactions where a quitclaim deed is used are generally between family members or in divorce cases where the interest in the property is transferred solely to one spouse. Regardless of the situation, it is highly recommended that the buyer or the person receiving interest in the property conduct a thorough title search to ensure that there are no encumbrances on the property.
Suppose you would instead like to transfer the property in a way that protects the new buyer. In that case, you should consider a different type of deed, such as a statutory warranty deed (similar to a general warranty deed), a special warranty deed, or a transfer-on-death deed. If you are unsure of what type of deed you should use, you should seek legal advice from a real estate attorney.
Kansas quitclaim deed laws are codified at Kansas Statutes § 58-2204.
Signing Requirements - In the State of Kansas, a quitclaim deed must be notarized by a certified Notary Public (§ 58-2205).
Recording - Once notarized, the quitclaim deed must be filed with the County Recorder’s Office in the county where the property is located.
