Oregon Quitclaim Deed from Husband to Himself and Wife
About this form
The Quitclaim Deed from Husband to Himself and Wife is a legal document that allows a husband to transfer property ownership to himself and his wife. This type of deed is unique because it conveys any interest the husband may have in the property without guaranteeing clear title. It differs from a warranty deed, which provides more assurances about the title. This quitclaim deed is particularly useful in marital property situations where both spouses are involved in property ownership.
