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.
Important: Your property must be located in Marshall County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.

The instructions and example for filling out the form were very clear and detailed making the whole process fairly easy. An attorney I talked to wanted $200 to fill out this simple form. I haven't tried to file it yet but I will let you know if there are any issues. Really a great deal. $20 vs $200.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

First, I am glad that you gave a blank copy, an example copy, and a 'guide'. It made it much easier to do. Overall I was very happy with your products and organization... however, things got pretty confusing and I have a pretty 'serious' law background in Real Estate and Civil law. With that said, I spent about 10+ hours getting my work done, using the Deed of Trust and Promissory note from you and there were a few problems: First, it would be FANTASTIC if you actually aligned your guide to actually match the Deed or Promissory Note. What I mean is that if the Deed says 'section (E)' then your guide shouldn't be 'randomly' numbered as 1,2,3, for advice/instructions, but should EXACTLY match 'section (E)'. Some places you have to 'hunt' for what you are looking for, and if you did it based on my suggestion, you wouldn't need to 'hunt' and it would avoid confusion. 2nd: This one really 'hurt'... you had something called the 'Deed of Trust Master Form' yet you had basically no information on what it was or how to use it. The only information you had was a small section at the top of the 'Short Form Deed of Trust Guide'. Holy Cow, was that 'section' super confusing. I still don't know if I did it correctly, but your guide says only put a return address on it and leave the rest of the 16 or so page Deed of Trust beneath it blank... and then include your 'Deed of Trust' (I had to assume the short form deed that I had just created) as part of it. I had to assume that I had to print off the entire 17 page or so title page and blank deed. I also had to assume that the promissory note was supposed to be EXHIBIT A or B on the Short Form Deed. It would be great if someone would take a serious look at that short section in your 'Short Form Deed of Trust Guide' and realize that those of us using your products are seriously turning this into a county clerk to file and that most of us, probably already have a property that has an existing Deed... or at least can find one in the county records if necessary... and make sure that you make a distinction between the Deed for the property that already exists, versus the Deed of Trust and Promissory note that we are trying to file. Thanks.
Thank you for your feedback. We'll have staff review the document for clarity. Have a great day!

The product I purchased looks great and I added Adobe to be able to copy it, but for some reason I can't,so I will delete Adobe and then try again to copy what i paid for. I have all the PDFS' and my computer and printer are fairly new (windows 10),I should have tried to copy it first, I'll get it! Thanks
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
