You do not have to be an attorney to prepare a Florida quitclaim deed. Absent attorney fees, your costs would only be the recording fees that the county comptroller charges and transfer fees if the property is mortgaged.
If properly executed, a Florida quitclaim deed usually requires two weeks to three months to be recorded. The parties involved in real estate transactions generally seek to record the deed immediately after the closing process is concluded.
