Washington Quitclaim Deed from Corporation to LLC
What is this form?

This deed allows the corporation (Grantor) to convey its interest in a specified property to the LLC (Grantee) without making any guarantees regarding the title.

This form is distinct from warranty deeds, which offer more comprehensive guarantees about the property title.
