  • Florida Non-Lawyer Quit Claim Deed Intake Form

    Provide information needed to prepare your Quit Claim Deed. Please read the disclosure and complete all sections carefully.
  • DISCLOSURE FROM NON-LAWYER: I am not an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Florida and may not give legal advice or accept fees for legal advice. I can only type the factual information provided by you. If you need legal advice, you should consult a licensed attorney.

  • Non Representation Disclosure:

    No legal advice, tax advice, or title advice is being provided. The preparer is acting solely as a typist of the factual information you provide. You are solely responsible for selecting how title will be held and for understanding the legal and probate consequences of your choices. If you need legal advice, you must consult a licensed Florida attorney.

  • Section 1: Client Information

  • Your complete name exactly as it appears on your driver’s license or government ID.
  • Format: (000) 000-0000.
  • The best phone number to reach you if we have questions.
  • Your email address for receiving a draft of your deed and updates.
  • The address where you want to receive mail about this deed. This does not have to be the property address.

  • Section 2: Property Information

  • The street address of the property being transferred.

  • The Florida county where the property is located. The deed must be recorded in this county.

  • The full legal description from your current deed, not just the street address. You can find this on your prior deed or property tax records.

  • The property tax identification number assigned by the county property appraiser.

  • Section 3: Current Owner(s) – Grantor(s)

  • These are the people who are transferring their interest in the property.

  • For each owner, state whether they are single, married, divorced, or widowed. Florida law may require a spouse to sign even if not on title.

  • Section 4: New Owner(s) – Grantee(s)

  • These are the people who will receive ownership of the property.

  • The address where each new owner wants future tax notices sent.

  • Section 5: Title Vesting (How the New Owners Will Hold Title)

  • How will the new owners hold title to the property?*
  • Sole Ownership: One person owns 100%. When that person dies, the property usually goes through probate unless a Lady Bird Deed or trust is used.

    Tenants with Right of Survivorship: Two or more people own equal shares. When one owner dies, their share automatically goes to the surviving owner(s), which helps avoid probate for that share.

    Tenants in Common: Two or more people can own unequal shares. When one owner dies, their share goes to their heirs through probate unless other planning is in place.

    Tenants by the Entireties: Available only to married couples. When one spouse dies, the other automatically owns 100%, avoiding probate for that transfer.

  • Section 6: Homestead Status

  • Is the property your Florida Homestead?*
  • A homestead is your primary residence where you live permanently and may receive a homestead tax exemption.

  • Is the property currently your primary residence?*
  • This means you actually live there full-time.
  • Are you married?*
  • Florida law may require your spouse to sign if this is homestead property, even if they are not on the deed.
  • Does your spouse live in the property?*
  • This helps determine homestead rights and required signatures.
  • Is the property rental, vacant land, or investment property?*
  • This helps determine tax and documentary stamp considerations.
  • Section 7: Mortgage and Liens

  • Is there a mortgage on the property?*
  • A quit claim deed does not remove a mortgage. The loan remains in place unless paid off or refinanced.
  • Are there any known liens or judgments?*
  • A lien is a legal claim against the property for unpaid debts, such as taxes or contractor bills.
  • Section 8: Consideration

  • Is any money being paid for this transfer?*
  • This is called "consideration." Even if it is a gift, Florida requires stating a value for documentary stamp tax purposes.
  • This amount may affect documentary stamp taxes.
  • Section 9: Recording Information

  • Provide the name and mailing address for return of the recorded original.
  • Certification Statement
