Welcome Tammie,
The quitclaim deed becomes effective from the day it is recorded.
The quitclaim deed becomes effective from the day it is recorded.
Whether the buyer or the seller can witness the quitclaim deed will depend upon the state laws.
A deed becomes effective when it is delivered to the grantee. Recording a deed has no effect on its validity.
A witness should be a disinterested party, not the buyer or seller.
