Questions answered? Let's get started!
An Iowa quitclaim deed configured for two grantors gathers both current owners' conveyances, and the spousal releases that follow them, into one recorded instrument. The form recites exactly two individual grantors who join in a single deed and quitclaim to the grantee every interest the two of them hold in the described Iowa real estate, with no warranty of title attached.
Two grantors, one recorded conveyance
Iowa Code section 558.19 supplies the operative words: for the stated consideration, the grantors quitclaim all their interest in the described tract. Printed in the plural, that language lets two co-owners pass the entire title in one filing rather than two. Two joint tenants selling to a purchaser, tenants in common ending a co-ownership at a single closing, a married couple deeding jointly held acreage into a revocable trust, and two heirs joining in one conveyance of the family parcel all leave records in this shape. The deed gathers its facts in numbered sections, a grantee entry sized for one new owner or for co-grantees with a co-ownership designation, a consideration line, the legal description with its county blank, and the source of title, and then performs the quitclaim in a complete printed sentence.
Four signature lines answer Iowa's spousal rights
Iowa homestead law is unforgiving on this point: under Iowa Code section 561.13, a married owner's conveyance of the homestead is valid only when the owner's spouse executes the same or a like instrument, and the Iowa Supreme Court, in Martin v. Martin, treated a homestead deed lacking that execution as invalid as to both spouses. A surviving spouse's statutory share also reaches Iowa real property possessed during the marriage to which no relinquishment was made, so title examiners look for a spouse's release on deeds from married grantors generally. This deed answers with a dedicated spousal relinquishment section: two labeled signature blocks, one for the spouse of each grantor, executing solely to release dower, homestead, and distributive share rights. When the two grantors are married to each other, their own signatures do that work and the spouse blocks stay blank; when a grantor's spouse is not on title, the block is where that signature lives. Every signer, grantor or spouse, has an acknowledgment certificate of its own, so the acknowledgments may happen on different days, in different counties, or before different notarial officers.
Built for the recorder's checklist
The top three inches of page one stay blank for the recording stamp, and the items Iowa Code section 331.606B expects on a conveyance's first page, the preparer's identity, the taxpayer who receives the tax statement, and the return address, print in labeled fields directly below that band. Page one also carries the statutory no-condition groundwater sentence under Iowa Code section 558.69, along with a transfer tax section that either states an exemption under Iowa Code section 428A.2 or, as in the included example, notes that the tax is paid with recording. Iowa's transfer tax runs eighty cents per five hundred dollars of consideration above the first five hundred, paid alongside a declaration of value; the guide takes up the tax computation, the refusal grounds at the recorder's counter, the county auditor's transfer fee, and statewide e-recording.
The download delivers three pieces: the fillable two-grantor deed, a completed example showing a Linn County sale by a brother and sister with both spouses joining, and a plain language guide to preparing, signing, and recording the deed with an Iowa county recorder. The materials are informational; they are not legal advice.

I'm transferring a property into a trust and ordered the QuitClaim Deed. Everything was pretty straight forward and user friendly. However, the Additional Information/Instructions for the Preliminary Change of Ownership Report skips from Section "I" to "M" and does not address "K". It would have been very helpful to have an explanation of the difference between the three options in that section. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
