Washoe County Quitclaim Deed (Two Grantors) Form

The Nevada Quitclaim Deed (Two Grantors) is configured in pairs: two grantor recitals, two signature lines with printed name lines beneath them, and two acknowledgment certificates, one for each signer. It is the release instrument for Nevada real property held by two record owners who are giving up their right, title, and interest together, in one recorded deed. A search for a two owner quit claim deed or quick claim deed form for Nevada lands on this instrument under its informal names.

Two releasing owners, one recorded instrument

The form's architecture follows its owner count. Section 1 carries a separate entry for each grantor: the name as it appears on the vesting deed, marital status, and mailing address. Each grantor signs on that grantor's own line, and the typed or printed name NRS 247.190 calls for sits beneath each signature. The certificates follow the NRS 240.166 statutory short form, and because each signer has one, the two owners may appear before different notaries, on different dates, in different states. Patterns in the Nevada record that present two releasing owners include a married couple conveying community real property, two joint tenants passing the whole title in a single conveyance, and two tenants in common joining in one deed. The form recites exactly two grantors; it is not set up as a release by a single owner or as a conveyance by three or more owners.

Community property and the both spouses rule

Nevada is a community property state, and NRS 123.230(3) provides that neither spouse may sell, convey, or encumber community real property unless both join in executing the deed and both acknowledge it. NRS 122A.200 extends the same rule to registered domestic partners. A two grantor quitclaim carries that execution pattern on its face: both owners recited, both signing, both acknowledging. The completed example follows the shape, showing a married couple in Washoe County releasing their interests to their adult daughter.

A release without title covenants

The deed remises, releases, and forever quitclaims, and it states on its face that no covenant is implied under NRS 111.170, the statute that attaches limited implied covenants to the words grant, bargain and sell. What each grantor passes is fixed by NRS 111.070: all of the estate and interest that grantor holds at delivery, whatever the record makes it, and nothing more. Nothing in the instrument promises that either grantor owns anything, which is the trade a quitclaim makes in every state that recognizes one.

The recording package Nevada expects

The first page places the assessor's parcel number at its top left corner, the position NRS 111.312(2) assigns, and the statute's other shall not record items are built into the numbered sections: the grantee's mailing address, the mail tax statements entry, and the preparer statement or prior recording reference that accompanies a metes and bounds legal description. The NRS 239B.030 affirmation that the document contains no social security number appears above the title. At the recorder's counter the deed is accompanied by a State of Nevada Declaration of Value, and the recorder collects the real property transfer tax before accepting the deed: $1.95 per $500 of value in most counties, $2.05 in Washoe and Churchill Counties, and $2.55 in Clark County, subject to the exemptions NRS 375.090 lists and the declaration claims by number. A transfer between spouses, or between parent and child, is among the listed exemption categories, and the guide walks through the declaration and the penalty that follows a disallowed claim.
