Utah Quitclaim Deed from Corporation to Two Individuals
About this form
The Quitclaim Deed from Corporation to Two Individuals is a legal document that allows a corporation (the Grantor) to transfer its interest in a specific property to two individuals (the Grantees). This type of quitclaim deed is essential when the corporate entity is divesting property ownership and ensures that the new joint owners receive whatever interest the corporation has in the property. Unlike other types of deeds, a quitclaim deed does not guarantee that the Grantor holds clear title to the property, making it crucial to understand its implications and limitations.
