What Is a North Dakota Quitclaim Deed?

A quitclaim deed in the state of North Dakota is a document that transfers the ownership interest of a property from one person to the next. This type of transfer comes with no warranty or guarantee that the title of the property is clear, which means that it is important that the buyer conducts a thorough title search to ensure that there are no unpleasant surprises once the transaction is complete. These types of transactions are common between family members, but can be used for traditional home purchases as well (though not common).

If you instead want to transfer real estate in a way that protects the new owner, you should consider a different type of deed, such as a general warranty deed or a special warranty deed.  If you are unsure about what type of property deed you should use, you should seek legal advice.
