The grantor must sign the quitclaim deed in the presence of two credible witnesses. The quitclaim deed must also be subscribed by the two witnesses. The address of the grantee is needed in order to record this type of real estate document. The Registrar of Deeds does not require a derivation clause to be on a quitclaim deed in South Carolina. The Uniform Recognition of Acknowledgement Act must be complied with, the details of which are described in 30-5-30. For information on the content and format of a quitclaim deed, visit the county links listed under South Carolina.
A quitclaim deed of conveyance of lands is valid to subsequent creditors or purchasers for valuable consideration without notice, only after it is recorded in the office of the register of deeds in the county where the property is located. In the case of a subsequent purchaser of real estate (or a subsequent lien creditor on real estate) for valuable consideration without notice, the instrument evidencing the subsequent conveyance or lien must be filed for record in order for its holder to claim under section 30-7-10 of the South Carolina Code as a subsequent creditor or purchaser for value without notice, and the priority is determined by the time of filing for record.

Review: why not word format??
Reply from Staff on January 15th, 2020
Good question. There are many reasons, we'll touch on a few. For the end user (you) Adobe Reader is free, Word is not. PDF is the portable document standard, Word is a decent word processor. A portable document format (PDF) maintains document formatting such as margins and font size which is very important to legal documents, Word does not. Have a wonderful day.

Review: The forms are extremely helpful. They could use some updating. Promissory note "...in the form of cash, check or money order." is a bit outdated. My note is with my son and we have an automatic bank transfer set up for payments. He could Venmo me. There are many other options and likely to be more changes in the future, so I know this is difficult to maintain.

Review: Five stars rating for sure. All so easy to download and print from your home computer. I live in rural Arizona and have no store to run in to like the lady at the County office told me, so Deeds.com is the best. Brenda Y.

Review: Very satisfied. Download was easy, completing the form was easy, got our signatures notarized and submitted it to the register of deeds. The only item was that the register of deeds did not immediately recognize the TOD deed form as the usual form they receive. After carefully reviewing all the information and wording on the deed she accepted it.

Review: Deeds.com did such a wonderful job that I had to leave a positive review. I did a deed retrieval and ran across some hiccups. Deeds.com was able to help me get my deed and even went beyond to help me have a more in depth understanding of it's title history. They responded quickly to all my messages. Great customer service. Definitely recommend! Thank you Deeds.com and thank you KVH.
