Questions answered? Let's get started!
This fillable South Carolina quitclaim deed recites a single grantor: one individual releasing whatever interest that person holds in the described real property to a named grantee. The form carries one signature line, two subscribing witness blocks, and one acknowledgment certificate, the execution set South Carolina recording practice expects of a deed signed by one person.
A release of interest, not a promise of title
A quitclaim deed, also searched as a quit claim deed or non-warranty deed, transfers the grantor's right, title, and interest, if any, and nothing more. The operative language remises, releases, and forever quitclaims; no covenant or warranty of title travels with the conveyance, and the grantee takes whatever the record actually holds. South Carolina writes a distinct treatment for this instrument into its recording statute: S.C. Code Section 30-5-35 excludes quitclaim and non-warranty deeds from the derivation clause that warranty deeds and mortgages must carry, so no source of title recital is required, and the form's prior instrument reference stays optional and informational. The transfers that appear in the record on quitclaim deeds are the low assurance patterns: family transfers, title cleanups confirming ownership already vested, transfers implementing a court order, and boundary adjustments between neighbors.
One grantor, two witnesses, one certificate
The individual grantor configuration is the architecture of this form. One grantor section identifies the owner releasing the interest, one signature line carries the execution, two witness blocks answer the two witness practice South Carolina statutes and county recording offices describe for deeds, and a single acknowledgment certificate completes the recording prerequisite of S.C. Code Section 30-5-30. County recording offices publish that the notary may serve as one of the two witnesses, so a signing can proceed with the grantor, one other witness, and the notary present. The form recites exactly one grantor conveying in that grantor's own right; deeds executed by two or more co-owners, or by an entity through an officer, present different signing patterns than this form recites.
What South Carolina asks of a recorded deed
The form collects what the statutes and the county registers of deeds ask for. The grantee entry carries a mailing address, which Section 30-5-35 requires on deeds conveying an interest in land. A tax map number section holds the parcel identifier the largest counties list on their published intake requirements, and the legal description section takes the formal description from the prior recorded instrument. The first page reserves one and one half inches at the top and bottom for the recording stamp, the strictest margin rule published among the state's largest counties. Recording a deed costs fifteen dollars under the uniform statewide fee schedule of Section 8-21-310, and under Section 30-7-10 the recorded deed affects subsequent creditors and purchasers for valuable consideration without notice from the day and hour of recording.
Deed stamps and the value affidavit
South Carolina collects a deed recording fee, commonly called deed stamps, of one dollar and eighty five cents per five hundred dollars of the realty's value on most deeds, and Section 12-24-70 pairs the fee with an affidavit of value signed by a responsible person connected with the transaction. Many of the transfers that arrive on quitclaim deeds land in the exemptions of Section 12-24-40: deeds whose value is one hundred dollars or less, transfers between spouses or incident to divorce under Internal Revenue Code Section 1041, partition deeds, and quitclaim deeds used to confirm title already vested where no consideration is paid. An exempt deed records with the reason for exemption stated in the affidavit instead of a value.
The download includes the blank quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example showing the entire document filled in for a realistic Greenville County fact pattern, and a plain language guide that walks through every numbered section, the witness and notary requirements, and the recording steps, with the deed stamp exemptions laid out. The materials describe South Carolina law in general terms and are not legal advice.

Forms appear to be most current and instructions clear. Inserting grantor/grantee information onto form a bit "clunky" however no major issues. I will be using services again.
Thank you!

The process for receiving the quitclaim document worked well. I couldn't use the document. If I had been able to view the document before I had to pay for it, I would have known, but that isn't how your process works. However, that's the only snag I found. Otherwise the process for paying and downloading the document worked well. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback Beverly. We certainly do not want you to pay for something you are unable to use. To that end we have canceled your order and refunded your payment. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs. Have a wonderful day.

I like that DEEDS.com has a variety of forms tht I may need. However, I was disappointed that I am not able to save the PDF forms after I fill in the spaces. If I need to edit anything, I have to go back to the blank form and redo the whole thing. Perhap I am doing something wrong.
Thank you!

Quit Claim deed for North Carolina did not include all of the information I needed (two separate notary sections), but I was able to re-create another notary section in Word, and then insert it in the appropriate place after printing both documents. Otherwise, the document worked as described.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I receive the specific legal forms that I needed as well as a guide on how to fill out the form. Very pleased. I saved $300.00 in lawyers fees by filling out the Quickclaim deed myself.
