Questions answered? Let's get started!

A recorded deed with a wrong lot number, a misspelled name, or missing witness information does not fix itself; the error sits in the county Official Records until a new instrument corrects it. In Florida, when the flawed deed is a quitclaim deed, the correction arrives the same way the original did. The Florida Corrective Quitclaim Deed re-executes the conveyance in substantially the statutory form of section 689.025, Florida Statutes, identifies the recorded deed and the error being corrected, and places the corrected description and terms on record.

Why a quitclaim error takes a new deed

Florida has a statutory shortcut for certain deed mistakes, but it is a narrow one. The curative procedure of section 689.041 applies to a scrivener's error in a legal description, defines an erroneous deed as any deed other than a quitclaim deed, and reaches only a single qualifying error, such as one wrong lot or block identification. An error in a recorded quitclaim deed sits outside that procedure entirely, so the correction path is re-execution: the original grantor signs a new quitclaim deed to the same grantee. This form's correction recital identifies the corrected deed by date, recording reference, and county, states the error, and provides that the corrective deed controls to the extent of any conflict, before conveying with the statutory operative words: remise, release, and quitclaim.

Built on the 2023 statutory form

Since chapter 2023-238, Laws of Florida, a Florida quitclaim deed must follow substantially the form set out in section 689.025, including a blank for the property appraiser's parcel identification number. The same legislation tightened the recording statute: for deeds recorded on or after January 1, 2024, section 695.26 requires each witness name printed beneath the witness signature and each witness post office address on the instrument. The form tracks all of it, with the two subscribing witness blocks section 689.01 requires, a joinder block for the spouse of a married grantor whose homestead the property is, under article X, section 4(c) of the Florida Constitution, and Florida statutory acknowledgment certificates carrying the physical presence or online notarization election.

Documentary stamps on a correction

Deeds transferring an interest in Florida real property carry documentary stamp tax at 70 cents per $100 of consideration, with Miami-Dade County applying its own rate structure. A corrective deed given only to fix an error, with no new consideration, is handled in county practice at the minimum tax of 70 cents; the Orange County property transfer form, for one, lists corrective deeds correcting a legal description, names, or a scrivener's error among the stated reasons for minimum tax payment. A deed that changes who owns the property is a new conveyance with tax computed on its own consideration, outside the correction practice this deed documents.

The download prepares the correction from start to finish: a fillable statutory form deed with the correction recital, a completed example correcting a lot number error in Orange County, and a plain language guide that walks entry by entry, from the recording references of the corrected deed through witnessing, notarization, and recording with the clerk of the circuit court of the county where the property lies. The materials are informational, not legal advice.

This is the first time that I have used this service. An employee at the Clerk and Register office in Arizona suggested that I try Deeds.com to find the form I needed and the county office could not provide. I am a licensed Realtor in Colorado with a 43-year career and this service has not been necessary in my own state but it was extremely helpful in finding a form in Arizona. Five star rating for the very user-friendly website!

Thought from the reviews and claims, it would be able to do our quit claim deed. Maybe for simple situations it works but ours required more room for the description and parcel numbers. Ended up being a total waste of $40.00. Wouldn't buy again. It is no better than the free forms you can find online.

Hi Terry, thanks for the feedback. Your order was canceled and fully refunded. To clarify for other customers: our quitclaim deed package includes an exhibit/attachment page for legal descriptions and parcel numbers that run long, with instructions on when and how to use it, this is a standard approach for multi-page legal descriptions and is accepted by recorders.
