Utah Quit Claim Deed Form

Utah Quit Claim Deed Form

A Utah Quit Claim Deed is a one (1) page legal form used for transferring interest in a Utah-based property (owned by a “Grantor”) from one person or entity to another. The deed type is typically used among friends and family due to the liability it poses on the Grantee (person receiving the property). Unlike warranty deeds, there is no guarantee that the property is free of defects, covenants, or other issues. To help reduce liability, Grantees can conduct a title search to look back into the property’s past. This allows them to look for signs that there may be other persons with an interest in the property.
