A quitclaim deed in Wyoming is a legal form that conveys property from one person to the next when a property is sold or transferred. This type of transfer is not a transfer that comes without risks. The buyer may receive the ownership interest and later find out that there is a major lien on the property that they are now responsible for.
Unlike a general warranty deed or special warranty deed, a quitclaim deed doesn’t come with any assurances regarding a clean title. The main purpose of these documents is to transfer the ownership interest of the property to ensure that the seller does not come back at a later date to claim interest on it.
This type of deed is usually used to transfer property between family members or in a divorce settlement. A buyer should always conduct a thorough property search before using a quitclaim deed to receive property to ensure a clean title.
If you want to transfer property in a way that protects the new owner of the property, you should use a different type of deed. If you are unsure about which property deed to use, you should seek legal advice.
Wyoming quitclaim deed laws are codified at Wyoming Statutes § 34-2-104.
Signing - A Grantor (the seller of the property) must sign the quitclaim deed in the presence of a Notary Public (§ 34-26-107).
Recording - After the Grantor has had the document notarized, it must be filed at the County Clerk’s Office/Recorder of Deeds Office in the county where the property is located.
Additional Documents - The State of Wyoming requires that all quitclaim deeds be accompanied by a Statement of Consideration (§ 34-1-142).
