Kentucky Quitclaim Deed - Husband and Wife, or Two Individuals, to Five Individuals

FAQ
The only way to forcibly change the ownership status is through a legal action and the resultant court order. However, if an owner chooses to be removed from the deed, it is simply a matter of preparing a new deed transferring that owner's interest in the property.
But you might be wondering if an owner can transfer a deed to another person without a real estate lawyer. The answer is yes. Parties to a transaction are always free to prepare their own deeds.A quitclaim deed, for example, is far simpler than a warranty deed.
Two of the most common ways to transfer property in a divorce are through an interspousal transfer deed or quitclaim deed. When spouses own property together, but then one spouse executes an interspousal transfer or a quitclaim deed, this is known as transmutation.
A quitclaim deed will remove the out-spouse (or departing spouse) from the title to the property, effectively relinquishing their equity or ownership in the home. The execution of a quitclaim deed is typically a requirement of a divorce settlement in order to complete the division of assets.
A person who signs a quitclaim deed to transfer property they do not own results in no title at all being transferred since there is no actual ownership interest. The quitclaim deed only transfers the type of title you own.
Discuss property ownership interests. Access a copy of your title deed. Complete, review and sign the quitclaim or warranty form. Submit the quitclaim or warranty form. Request a certified copy of your quitclaim or warranty deed.
Fill out the quit claim deed form, which can be obtained online, or write your own using the form as a guide. The person giving up the interest in the property is the grantor, and the person receiving the interest is the grantee.
It usually takes four to six weeks to complete the legal processes involved in the transfer of title.
It will depend what state the property is in. For example, the minimum fee payable when changing the title to have someone removed from a property title in NSW is $133.48. This fee must be paid to the NSW Government Land & Property Information Department.
