Requirements for a Valid Quitclaim Deed in Illinois
To ensure your Illinois quitclaim deed is valid, it must include the following information:
Grantor's Information: Name and address of the person transferring the property (765 ILCS 5/10).
Grantee's Information: Name and address of the person receiving the property (55 ILCS 5/3-5020, 5026).
Consideration: Usually money, this is the amount paid for the property.
Legal Description: Complete description of the property, including the county where it's located (765 ILCS 5/10).
Execution Date: The date the deed is signed by the grantor.
Notarized Signature: The grantor's signature must be notarized (765 ILCS 5/10).
Return Address: Address for sending the deed after it's recorded (55 ILCS 5/3-5020.5).
Previous Deeds Information: Document and book/page numbers from prior deeds (55 ILCS 5/3-5020.5).
Prepared By Statement: Name and address of the person who prepared the deed (55 ILCS 5/3-5022).
Property Identifiers: Include the assessor's section or lot and block identifiers, and real estate index ID if available (55 ILCS 5/3-5027).
If the property is a homestead, both the grantor and their spouse must sign the deed, even if the spouse does not hold title to the property. If the property is not a homestead, include a statement indicating this (765 ILCS 5/27).
Recording the Quitclaim Deed
To record your quitclaim deed, follow these guidelines:
Signature Formatting: Type or print the signor's name below each signature (55 ILCS 5/3-5018).
Margins: Leave a 3" x 5" blank space in the top right corner of the first page for the recorder's use. All other margins should be 1/2" all around (765 ILCS 5/10).
Paper and Ink: Use permanent black ink on white paper (minimum 20 lb. weight) (765 ILCS 5/28).
Paper Size: Print the deed on individual 8" x 11" sheets of paper. Do not staple, clip, tape, or attach anything to the pages (765 ILCS 5/10).
Submission: Submit the deed to the recorder in the county where the property is located (765 ILCS 5/10).
Importance of Recording
Illinois follows a "notice" recording statute (765 ILCS 5/30-31). This means a deed is effective from the time it is filed for recording. If a grantor transfers the same property to two different grantees, the first grantee to record the deed will have legal ownership. To protect your ownership rights, record the deed as soon as possible after it is signed.
Conclusion
Following these requirements ensures your Illinois quitclaim deed is properly executed and recorded, protecting the interests of all parties involved in the transaction.

Excellent - no reservations. I used them on a Sunday and had my info on Monday. Not only did they execute the order flawlessly, the fixed my screw up* immediately. *I hit refresh before the "secured" page transmitted, so I created (2) two orders of the same item.
Thanks for the review Paul, glad you were happy with the service and staff. Our staff is pretty good at catching the few duplicate orders that get through.

Well, When I got the question right I got the answers right from Claim Deed. In the end it all worked out very, very good. I'm pleased with the deed and the price was very fair. Thank you for answering all my crazy questions. Now all we have to do is go to UPS and sign it. Thank, again.
Thank you!

Customer service was poor. I felt like I had to debate the representative to provide guidance and assistance. They acted as though I knew the process, the documents involved, etc. At the same time, they asked me to confirm which documents or at least pages needed to be filed. I was leaning of Deeds.com for their expertise.
Thank you!
