Connecticut Quitclaim Deed

Quitclaim deeds are most often used to transfer property between family members. Examples include when an owner gets married and wants to add a spouse's name to the title or deed, or when the owners get divorced and one spouse's name is removed from the title or deed.

The drawback, quite simply, is that quitclaim deeds offer the grantee/recipient no protection or guarantees whatsoever about the property or their ownership of it. Maybe the grantor did not own the property at all, or maybe they only had partial ownership.

Misconceptions and Realities. It is a misconception that someone can be removed from the deed. Nor can a co-owner simply take away another party's interest in a property by executing a new deed without that other party. In short, no one can be passively removed from a title.
