About this Georgia form

Georgia Quitclaim Deed — What This Package Is For

Use a Georgia quitclaim deed only when the parties intend a no-warranty transfer. A quitclaim deed releases whatever right, title, and interest the grantor has, if any, and does not promise that the grantor owns the property or that title is free from liens, claims, or defects.

A quitclaim deed is not simply a shorter warranty deed. It can fit selected known-party, family, divorce-related, trust, or title-clearing transfers, but it is often not the best fit for a sale, title-insured transfer, lender-reviewed transfer, or transaction where the grantee expects warranty protection.

What You Receive

  • Editable Georgia Quitclaim Deed: a Word document for a no-warranty quitclaim conveyance, with party, consideration, exceptions, vesting, execution, and Exhibit A legal-description sections.
  • Separate instructions and recording checklist: a Word checklist focused on Georgia quitclaim use limits, signing, PT-61/eFiling, recording, and stop conditions.

Key Georgia Signing and Recording Points

  • No warranty: the deed gives no title warranties and does not automatically pass after-acquired title.
  • Witnesses: ordinary Georgia deed attestation still applies — an authorized officer, usually a notary public, plus one additional unofficial witness physically present at signing. The officer and unofficial witness should be different people, and neither should be a party or beneficiary.
  • Recording: record with the Clerk of Superior Court in the county where the land is located, using a complete legal description and the required first-page recording space.
  • PT-61/eFiling: Georgia PT-61, transfer-tax, exemption, and GSCCCA eFiling requirements can still apply to no-warranty conveyances.

When to Stop Before Using This Form

Get professional review before using a quitclaim deed for a sale, title-insurance transaction, lender-sensitive transfer, unclear ownership chain, expected after-acquired title, probate or estate matter, bankruptcy, divorce dispute, power-of-attorney signing, or any transfer where the grantee expects title protection.

Frequently Asked Questions About Georgia Quitclaim Deed Forms

The package includes an editable Georgia Quitclaim Deed Word document and a separate editable Georgia Quitclaim Deed Instructions and Recording Checklist Word document.

No. It releases whatever interest the grantor has, if any, and provides no deed warranty of title.

Yes. Georgia deed attestation rules still apply: an authorized officer and one unofficial witness should be physically present when the grantor signs.

No. Choose a quitclaim deed only when no-warranty quitclaim treatment is intended and the title, lender, tax, and recording consequences have been reviewed.

A quitclaim deed transfers whatever right, title, or interest the grantor may have in the property, if any. It does not include warranties about ownership or title condition, so the grantee accepts the title risk.

Quitclaim deeds are commonly used between parties who already know each other — for example certain family transfers, moving property into a trust, or adding or removing a name — where everyone understands there are no title warranties. They are often not the first choice for an arm's-length sale.

The packet includes the blank state-specific deed in editable Word format plus a separate completion instructions and checklist document. A completed sample PDF may be offered as an optional add-on.

Recording offices review formatting, execution requirements such as notarization, and any required supplemental forms or fees, which vary by county. The included instructions cover the general process; confirm your county's current requirements before you record.

It depends on your goals and how much title protection the grantee needs. Compare the deed types available for Georgia before choosing, and consult a professional for advice on your situation.
