The proper execution and recording of a quitclaim deed is the simplest way to accomplish your goal. Seek the advice of a real estate lawyer to ensure that the quitclaim deed is properly prepared and recorded with the correct taxes or fees being paid, so as to ensure the validity and effectiveness of the transfer of title to the real property. Good luck.
