Re: quitclaim deeds
You should select a quitclaim deed form that's appropriate for use in the Commonwealth and, ideally, one that provides for one spouse to deed
his or her interest in the subject property to
the other.
Once properly executed, this deed must then be recorded with the land records of the circuit court where the property is located in order to take effect.
