Re: QUITCLAIM DEED OR quickclaim deed

I don't know what you mean ragarding the lien, and your statement that you do not own the property is confusing. But as far as a deed goes, you may transfer your interest with either a quitclaim deed or a warranty deed. Either transfers your interest. The warranty deed is preferred by title examiners. It carries with it a warranty (guarantee) that you own the property and are authorized to transfer it. If this is your home and you are married, your spouse would also have to sign the deed. If there is a mortgage on the property, you also have to be concerned with the due-on-sale provision in your mortgage, and it will cost you documentary stamps of $7.00 per $1,000 of the mortgage balance to record the deed.
