Campbell County Quitclaim Deed (LLC Grantor) Form

South Dakota answers the question an entity deed raises before the deed is drafted. Under SDCL 47-34A-301(c), unless the articles of organization limit their authority, any member of a member-managed limited liability company, or any manager of a manager-managed one, may sign and deliver an instrument transferring the company's interest in real property. This fillable quitclaim deed is built on that provision: the company alone is the Grantor, one member or manager signs for it in a title the form records, and the conveyancing sentence states that the signature is the company's act rather than the signer's own.

Authority the form records, and authority the statute supplies

Section 2 collects a name and a title in the company, because those are the facts SDCL 47-34A-301 turns on: it separates a member of a member-managed company from a manager of a manager-managed one, and under the definitions in SDCL 47-34A-101 a company is manager-managed only when its articles of organization say so. Subsection (c) adds a protection aimed at land records, making an instrument signed and delivered under it conclusive in favor of a person who gives value without knowledge of the signer's lack of authority. Authority itself stays where it lives, in the articles, the operating agreement, and any consent the company's governance calls for, while acts outside the ordinary course of business answer to subsections (a) and (b) with SDCL 47-34A-404.1.

Interest passes, and nothing is promised about it

The operative words are the statutory pair, conveys and quitclaims. SDCL 43-25-8 fixes their reach at the interest the grantor holds on the date of the conveyance, with title arriving later staying put unless the deed adds words saying otherwise; this one adds none and says so. South Dakota then reads two covenants into quitclaim words unless express terms restrict them, one denying an earlier conveyance of the same estate by this grantor, one denying encumbrances traceable to it, so the operative section excludes the SDCL 43-25-11 covenants in capital letters. It adds the line an entity deed needs: the individual who signs gives no personal covenant and conveys no interest of that individual's own.

No seal, no spouse, one certificate

Three features of the signing page follow from the grantor being a company. A seal is nothing the deed waits for, because SDCL 43-25-25 provides that a grant is not invalidated by the absence of a seal of the grantor or of the grantor's agent. The homestead concurrence of SDCL 43-31-17 addresses an owner who is married, and a company has no spouse, so the second signature that section describes does not arise where the company holds record title. One signer means one signature block with the printed-name line SDCL 43-28-23 requires, and one notary certificate whose wide blank takes the signer's name with the representative capacity. Patterns presenting this architecture in the South Dakota record include a rental-property company selling a house to individual buyers, a land-holding company deeding a platted lot to an affiliated company, and a company releasing an undivided interest it holds beside individual co-owners. An individual signing personally, two owners, spouses, and a trustee each print a different configuration than this quit claim deed recites, and the grantee side stays open to one grantee or several, measured against the tenancy-in-common default of SDCL 43-2-12 the guide sets out.

What the register of deeds collects

Recording happens in the county where the land lies, at the statewide charge of thirty dollars for a deed's first fifty pages under SDCL 7-9-15. The realty transfer fee of SDCL 43-4-21 runs fifty cents for every five hundred dollars of value, and the example's consideration of $142,500 produces $142.50; an exempt transfer instead has its exemption marked on the instrument under SDCL 43-4-23, which Section 9 receives. A certificate of real estate value under SDCL 7-9-7 rides along as its own Department of Revenue filing, applied to quitclaim deeds like any other transfer. Layout answers to SDCL 43-28-23: a three inch stamp reserve on page one carrying the return and preparer blocks at its left, an inch elsewhere, ten point type, and a nonconforming document surcharged under SDCL 43-28-24 rather than turned away.

Three files arrive with the purchase: the blank deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example worked through on a Yankton County sale by a South Dakota limited liability company, and a plain-language guide to the numbered sections, the signing formalities, and the recording package.
