Questions answered? Let's get started!

New York keeps its deed forms inside a statute, and the quitclaim deed printed there still opens on the words "This indenture, made the ... day of ..., nineteen hundred and ..." Real Property Law Section 258 prints that schedule, then says two things about it: the statutory forms are lawful, and the validity of other forms is preserved. This New York quitclaim deed, also written quit claim deed, carries the operative words of Statutory Form D in a numbered modern layout.

Lawful forms, and other forms

Three verbs do the work in Section 258's quitclaim: the grantor does hereby remise, release, and quitclaim to the grantee, together with the appurtenances and all the estate and rights of the grantor in and to the premises. Nothing else is promised. Real Property Law Section 251 keeps it that way: a covenant is not implied in a conveyance of real property, whether or not the conveyance contains special covenants. The instrument states that posture in its own words, and the listing of recorded matters beside it says on its face that it creates no covenant or warranty.

One or two people on either side

This is the base configuration of the line, and its party blocks are open rather than preprinted. The Grantor section receives one or two individual grantors signing in their own capacity, with whatever status words they state. The Grantee section receives one or two grantees plus any words of co-ownership they choose, which is where a designation such as as tenants in common or as tenants by the entirety appears. Two signature blocks are printed, each with its own certificate in the substance of the Real Property Law Section 309-a uniform form, and a deed signed by one grantor leaves the second pair blank. Nothing about status, capacity, or vesting is preprinted. Releases in the record with this shape include a sole owner passing a parcel to an adult child and two heirs clearing inherited fractional interests into one name. An entity grantor recites its organizing jurisdiction and its signing authority, and three or more owners on a side exceed the two names this form carries.

What the recording officer is told to look for

Real Property Law Section 333 reads as an instruction to the clerk rather than to the parties. A recording officer is directed not to record or accept a conveyance unless the residences of the parties, with street numbers where any exist, are stated, and a deed transferring title states the city, town, and village where the land sits. County practice adds the tax map designation: Suffolk requires its own, and Nassau asks for section, block, and lot on the first page. Then the same statute saves the title, providing that an omission or error in that information does not invalidate the conveyance or impair title. A rejection at the counter and a defect in the chain are two different problems, and Section 333 draws the line between them.

A covenant printed when nothing is being built

Every customary New York printed deed carries the trust fund covenant of Lien Law Section 13, and this one does too. Subdivision 5 explains why: a conveyance recorded after an improvement has begun, and before the lien filing period has run, is not valid against liens filed in a corresponding period measured from the recording, unless the deed carries the grantor's covenant to hold the consideration as a trust fund applied first to the improvement's cost.

Before the clerk takes it

The finished deed goes to the county clerk where the land is situated, or to the City Register through ACRIS in four boroughs. Tax Law Section 1410 bars the recording officer from recording a conveyance until the transfer tax return is filed and the tax paid, and Section 1409 makes that return due whether or not tax is owed; the RP-5217 transfer report follows Section 333 on legal paper with its own fee. Section 1405 lists the exemptions, a bona fide gift among them, claimed on the filed return rather than on the deed face.

The download holds three items: the blank New York quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example prepared for an Ulster County gift of a platted lot, and a plain language guide covering the thirteen sections, both certificates, and the recording package. These materials are informational and are not legal advice. What a quitclaim release reaches on a particular chain of title is a question for a New York attorney.

The process for obtaining document itself was easy, and the included guide and example are great! I do have an issue with the format itself, though. The form has pre-defined text boxes, which cannot be altered without partially rebuilding the entire document. For the 'property description' field on the Mineral Deed form, the text box is not large enough for the rather lengthy legal description entered on my original plat. Fortunately, I have a copy of Adobe Pro, so I have been able to re-build the doc to accommodate this short-coming.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on our legal form. We're pleased to hear that you found the process for obtaining the document and the included guide beneficial.

We understand and appreciate your concern regarding the formatting and size limitations of certain fields, especially the 'property description' field. Our forms are designed to adhere to specific formatting requirements that are often mandated for legal compliance. Making direct alterations to the document can result in them becoming non-conforming, which is why we advise customers to use an exhibit page when their legal description is extensive or does not fit.

Highly Pleased- Strongly Recommend Deeds.com Long review... sorry:-) Originally I was very skeptical due to the enormous amount of the scams going on now days and the number of online sources that "claim" to provide you with deed forms for free or for a few. Nothing that you need and want done is free. There is always a cost. So luckily I came across deeds.com. This was the only site that appeared to be simple, to the point, and made no crazy promises. So before selecting this site, I did a little more checking around/price checking to ensure I am getting the best price for the product I needed. I even checked Staples and Amazon to find that they do indeed sell these forms but I do not think the products they provide are specific for my state and county. They claim their forms provided are for all states but my state is specific and I prefer to have forms provided by Deeds.com that is based on Indiana statute that Deed.com clearly identifies on each form. Deeds.com price of $20 seemed a little high at first but when I saw the products provided, the $20 cost is more than reasonable and fair. You not only get the deed form specific for my state and my specific "county" but also the other various/supplemental forms that may be required. Being familiar with my state and knowing how tedious and anal my state is on everything, I was pleasantly please to see the info and extra supplemental forms provided. For example, a person new to the State who recently had property deeded to them, would not necessarily know about the Homestead tax exemption provided if property is your primary residents, over 65 exemption etc. I would highly recommend this site for anyone needing these documents because Deeds.com has you covered on any and all forms/info you could ever need! A bonus is that there is one flat fee and not monthly cost that you have to worry about canceling later unless you superficially select a monthly package. I love the fact that Deeds.com is nothing fancy. There is not a bunch of elaborate graphics etc. They only provide what you need and what they provide is very accurate. Deeds.com has a customer for life.
