Warranty Deeds offer the highest level of protection by guaranteeing the quality of the title even before the grantor took ownership. While Quitclaim Deeds offer protection for the period that the grantor owned the property being sold. And lastly, Release Deeds offer absolutely no assurances to the buyer at all.
A quitclaim deed must be signed in front of a New Jersey notary public. Once executed (or signed) a quitclaim deed is then filed with either a New Jersey Register of Deeds or New Jersey County Clerk, depending on which county the real estate is located.
It's safer to use a warranty deed any time you are not entirely sure of your or someone else's ownership stake in any property. If you are transferring a property to your child or to a revocable trust agreement as part of an estate plan, then a quitclaim deed could do the trick.
Filing: The deed must be filed at the appropriate county clerk's office. Essential elements: There are certain key elements to include, such as a legal description of the property or a statement of consideration. Notarization: The deed must be notarized to confirm its validity and the signature of the grantor.
