FAQ
In order to change any information in a Deed, a new Deed has to be prepared. One of the questions this office is most frequently asked is how to remove the name of a deceased person from the deed to property. Unfortunately, this is not a process that can be accomplished by merely providing a death certificate.
Maryland law requires all deeds to include the names of the grantor (the seller) and grantee (the buyer), a description of the property, and the interest that you intend to convey. All deeds must be recorded with the Department of Land Records in the county where the property is located.
If you wish to change your name or remove a name on your property record, due to marriage, divorce, death of an owner, etc., a new deed must be filed with the local Land Records office where the property is located. You can not change a deed to a property through the Assessment office.
How-to: Steps to make and record a new deed. To change the names on a real estate deed, you will need to file a new deed with the Division of Land Records in the Circuit Court for the county where the property is located. The clerk will record the new deed.
How to File Step 1: Obtain Maryland Quitclaim Deed Form. Step 2: Enter Preparer's Details. Step 3: Enter Grantor's Details. Step 4: Enter Grantee's Details. Step 5: Fill in Consideration.

For a deed to be legal, it must state the name of the buyer and the seller, describe the property being transferred, and include the signature of the party transferring the property. In addition to being either official or private, deeds are classified as general warranty, special warranty, or quitclaim.
Similarly, to add someone to a deed a new deed must be prepared to transfer the property from all current owners to all new and current owners. The new deed must then be recorded in land records. You can read about the steps to record a new deed at the People's Law Library.
