KANSAS QUITCLAIM DEED.
Recording and return information: a house 3-inch Register of Deeds stamp band, plus return-to / prepared-by fields. That band is house chassis, not a Kansas margin statute.
Party information: grantor and grantee names, mailing addresses, marital status, vesting, and the grantee mailing address required by K.S.A. 58-2221.
Consideration: a replaceable consideration prompt (nominal $10 recital or the actual consideration) and a K.S.A. 79-1437e exemption line so a truly exempt deed can skip the Sales Validation Questionnaire.
Page 2 continues: “conveys and quitclaims … without any warranty” under K.S.A. 58-2204, plus Exhibit A.
About this Kansas form
A Kansas quitclaim deed transfers whatever interest the grantor currently has in Kansas real estate, without making deed warranties. It is most often used for known-party transfers, family transfers, trust funding, divorce or title-clearing situations, and other transactions where the parties understand that no warranty protection is being given.
A quitclaim deed provides no deed warranties. For many ordinary buyer-seller transactions, a Kansas warranty deed is the more customary starting point. Kansas does not have a separate statutory grant-deed category. Use a quitclaim deed only when the no-warranty nature of the transfer fits the transaction.
Kansas deeds are recorded at the county level. Formatting rules, legal-description requirements, homestead facts, validation-questionnaire exemptions, grantee-address details, and current recording fees can affect recordability. Confirm current Register of Deeds requirements before relying on a completed deed.

Review the product notes and confirm local recording requirements before relying on any completed deed.

No. A Kansas quitclaim deed transfers only whatever interest the grantor has, if any, without deed warranties.
No. Ordinary Kansas deeds require notarized acknowledgment, not deed witnesses.
The register shall not record without a completed official Sales Validation Questionnaire unless a K.S.A. 79-1437e exemption is clearly stated on the deed. This packet includes the official one-part form for PVD-approved counties. Seven counties still use a multi-part form — get that form from the destination Register if needed.
No broad family-transfer exemption should be assumed. Kansas has no separate state deed transfer tax on consideration, but most conveyances still require a Real Estate Sales Validation Questionnaire unless a specific statutory exemption applies and is stated properly.
If the property is a married owner’s homestead, both spouses must consent on the same deed under Kan. Const. art. 15 § 9. A titled spouse signs as a Grantor. The labeled block is homestead consent only. Separate deeds are not enough.
No. This is a PublicLegal-authored self-help deed form, not a Kansas Judiciary, Register of Deeds, or government-issued form. Confirm current recording requirements before recording.
No. A deed transfers title to real property. It does not release the borrower from an existing mortgage or change lender rights unless the lender separately agrees.
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.
