Questions answered? Let's get started!

This Alaska quitclaim deed is set up for a single grantor: one owner signs one signature line, one acknowledgment certificate follows it, and the deed passes whatever interest that one owner holds, if any, with no warranty of title. It is the individual, one-signer configuration of the quitclaim form that Alaska Statutes 34.15.040 supplies, prepared for recording in Alaska's recording district system.

One Grantor, One Certificate

The form recites exactly one grantor, with a name and complete mailing address entry that satisfies the address element Alaska recording law places on every deed. A single signature block dates and executes the instrument, and the notary certificate beneath it follows the individual short form of AS 09.63.100, with the judicial district venue line an Alaska notarization uses, the blank set ahead of the words Judicial District in the arrangement the statutory forms print. A sole record owner passing an interest to one recipient, and one former co-owner releasing a fractional share to the other, present the single-grantor pattern this deed recites.

The same architecture marks the form's limits. It recites one grantor only; a conveyance signed by two co-owners together, or by a married owner whose spouse joins under Alaska's family home and homestead statute, presents a two-signature pattern this form does not carry. The grantee side stays flexible: the deed may name one grantee or several, with any Alaska co-ownership designation following the names, and the guide describes each form of title the grantees may take, including the tenancy in common default and the entireties presumption for spouses.

The Statutory Words That Move the Interest

Alaska writes its quitclaim deed into statute. AS 34.15.040 supplies a short form whose operative words, conveys and quitclaims, transfer all interest the grantor has, if any, in the described real estate, and a deed substantially in that form operates as a conveyance, release, and quitclaim, in fee, of all the grantor's existing legal and equitable rights. This form performs its conveyance with those statutory words and states on its face that it carries no covenant or warranty of title, the posture AS 34.15.080 confirms by barring implied covenants in Alaska conveyances of real estate.

Two Alaska-specific points sharpen the picture. Title the grantor acquires after delivering the deed does not follow a quitclaim to the grantee, apart from the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act category addressed in AS 34.15.075. And under Sabo v. Horvath, a grantee who takes by quitclaim deed is not, for that reason alone, outside the protection Alaska's recording act extends to an innocent purchaser whose conveyance reaches the record first.

Formatted for the Alaska Recorder's Office

The first page reserves a full two inches at the top for the recorder, above one-inch margins and 10 point minimum type per 11 AAC 06.040, and the face of the deed carries the entries the recorder's eligibility review looks for: a title reflecting the document's intent, the recording district where the property sits, complete mailing addresses for both parties, and the return-to name and address with zip code. Recording fees are uniform across all of Alaska's recording districts, currently $20 for the first page and $5 for each additional page, and the state collects no transfer tax on an ordinary deed, so the recorded package is ordinarily the deed and the fee. A parcel lying in more than one recording district is recorded in each district it touches, a rule the guide covers along with the rest of the recording process.

The download delivers three pieces: the blank quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example showing the deed filled in for a realistic Anchorage Recording District fact pattern, and a plain-language guide that walks through every numbered section, the notarization, and the recording steps. The materials describe Alaska law in general terms and are not legal advice.

1) I was very pleased when the staff mentioned your service since the three referenced on the Recorder's website all wanted HUGE Account set-up and maintenance fees AND BIG fees per recording, and yours has no set-up fee AND nominal per-recording fee; 2) My (few) recordings will be NON-LAND Related, summary or entire record(s) of Administrative (Procedures Act) records, Other than the Border width and Cover Sheet, do you anticipate any other special requirements for such recording(s)? NOTE: I just sent one by Snail Mail, and they just informed me that due to the GERMIPHOBIA 'Pandemic' the ONLY open and record Snail Mail ONCE A MONTH On the first of each chmonth!

Easy and convenient. Was nice to have just a one time charge without a so-called anual fee/membership. Will use again if needed. May update review after "all is said and done."
