QUITCLAIM DEED

Posted on: 09th May, 2007 09:57 am
IN THE STATE THAT I LIFE THE LAW REQUIRES TWO WITNESSES AT THE TIME OF SIGNING THE QUITCLAM DEED TRANSFER, IF IT WAS ONLY ONE WITNNESS AT THIS MOMENT BY MISTAKE AND NOW ALMOST TWO YEAR HAD PAST BY AND THE TITTLE COMPANY DISCOVER THE MISSTAKE, IS THAT CONTRACT VOIDABLE, WOULD ANOTHER NEW CONTRACT HAS TO BE SING TO DO IT RIGHT?

THANK YOU!
hi maria,

welcome to mortgagefit forum.

if it is a requirement to have 2 witnesses at the time the deed is signed and only 1 was present then the quit claim deed is not legal. you will be required to make a new deed.

Yes Maria, the deed will not have any legal value if it was not made out as per laws prevalent in your state. Additionally check the title records and you will most likely see that the property is still in the name of person who quit claimed it.

The previous deed that was made has no value as it was not made as per state laws. I would suggest that you take help of an attorney this time to make the new quit claim deed so that no error occurs again.

Hi Maria,

Welcome to Mortgagefit discussion board.

The grantee holds no rights on the property because of this error that occurred. A new contract will have to be made as property transfer has not taken place yet.

Do let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks
Blue
