Quitclaim Deed in Georgia
A quitclaim deed transfers whatever interest you have in real estate, with no promise that the title is good. Before you record it, check your state's signing rules below and your county recorder's formatting rules (margins, paper size, preparer and return-address blocks, transfer-tax forms) — recorders reject deeds that miss them.
What Georgia law says
| Signing and recording a deed | A deed to land must be in writing, signed by the grantor, and attested by two witnesses: an officer (such as a notary public, a judge of a court of record, or a court clerk) and a second, unofficial witness. It must be delivered to the buyer. Notaries and judges of courts of record may attest anywhere; other officers only in their own county. Recording office, transfer tax and transfer form rules are set in other sections. Official code not freely readable online; text verified on a public code mirror (code year 2024).
