Smith County Quitclaim Deed (Two Grantors) Form

Two grantors sign this Mississippi quitclaim deed, and every interest the record shows in their names travels to the grantee through one recorded instrument. The form prepares that two-owner conveyance under Sections 89-1-37 and 89-1-39 of the Mississippi Code, with a signature block and a notarial certificate for each grantor and the intake data Mississippi chancery clerks look for on a deed's first page.

Two interests, one instrument

The deed recites exactly two grantors of record. Each grantor's entry collects the full name, mailing address, and telephone numbers that Section 27-3-51 requires of every party to a recorded Mississippi deed, and the operative section carries both interests at once: the grantors remise, release, and forever quitclaim and convey all of their right, title, and interest to the named grantee or grantees. Because Section 89-1-7 makes tenancy in common the default whenever two or more people hold Mississippi land, a pair of co-owners typically holds two undivided interests, and a deed signed by only one of them leaves the other's undivided share standing in the record. Two heirs passing inherited undivided halves to a single new owner, spouses moving jointly titled land into one name, and co-investors closing out a shared parcel present the two-grantor record this deed recites.

Two signatures the record can rely on

The signature section carries two signature lines, each with the printed name beneath it that Section 89-5-24(1)(e) contemplates, followed by a notarial certificate for each signer in the operative wording of the Section 89-3-7(2) statutory short form. The paired certificates let the grantors appear before different notaries, in different counties or even different states, and the deed goes to record once both acknowledgments are complete. Where the two grantors are married to each other and the land is their homestead, the conveyance carries the two signatures Section 89-1-29 makes essential, since Mississippi treats a homestead conveyance that lacks the required spousal signature as void. The form is not set up for a lone owner, for three or more co-owners, or for a married grantor whose joining spouse is not one of the two named grantors; each of those patterns calls for a different signature architecture than the two blocks this deed carries.

What a two-grantor quitclaim passes

The conveyance runs without warranty words, which under Section 89-1-37 gives it the character of a quitclaim and release, and under Section 89-1-39 it passes all the estate or interest the grantors hold in the land. No title covenant travels with it: recorded deeds of trust, easements, and reservations stand untouched, and the grantee measures what arrived by the state of the record rather than by any promise inside the deed. A search for a quit claim deed with two sellers, the two-word spelling included, describes the same instrument prepared here.

Intake rules the deed is drafted around

Two Mississippi intake statutes carry refusal consequences, and the form answers both on its face: the chancery clerk may refuse a deed that omits any party's Section 27-3-51 mailing address and telephone data, and may decline an instrument whose legal description arrives without the Section 89-5-33(3) indexing entry, which this deed sets apart as its own numbered section the way the statute directs. Formatting defects travel a gentler path: a document that does not substantially conform to the Section 89-5-24 standards records anyway on payment of an additional ten dollars, and the statute states that nonconformance never affects the deed's validity. The form is laid out so neither consequence arises, with the statutory first-page items placed below the three-inch recording reserve.

Inside the download

The package holds three pieces: the two-grantor quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example carrying a realistic Rankin County transfer from its first page through both certificates, and a guide that walks each numbered section, the signing formalities, and the recording steps in plain language. The materials describe Mississippi law in general terms and are not legal advice.
