Washington Quitclaim Deed from Individual to LLC
Overview of this form
The Quitclaim Deed from Individual to LLC is a legal document used to transfer ownership of real property from an individual (the grantor) to a limited liability company (the grantee). This type of deed conveys the property without guaranteeing that the grantor holds clear title, making it different from warranty deeds, which provide more extensive protections to the buyer.
