Questions answered? Let's get started!

The second signature line on this Tennessee quitclaim deed belongs to a person who owns nothing. Record title stands in one spouse's name, and the other spouse signs to consent. That is the configuration this form is built for: one married record owner releasing whatever interest that owner holds in Tennessee real property, with the nonowner spouse joining to supply the joint consent Tennessee's homestead statute describes.

The spouse who is not on the deed

Tennessee abolished dower and curtesy in 1977 and is not a community property state, so a spouse whose name never reached the deed records ordinarily holds no interest to convey. What that spouse does hold is homestead. T.C.A. Section 26-2-301(a) attaches a homestead exemption to property used by the owner, the owner's spouse, or a dependent as a principal place of residence, and subsection (b) provides that while a marital relationship exists, a homestead exemption is not alienated or waived without the joint consent of the spouses. Subsection (d) completes the mechanism: an instrument conveying property in which there may be a homestead exemption, duly executed, conveys the property free of the exemption. The joining signature is what makes the consent joint, and this deed records it on the instrument's face.

One grantor, one consenting spouse

The form recites exactly one grantor, an individual who holds record title and is married, and one joining spouse who holds no record interest. Section 2 names that spouse and states the marriage and the absence of a record interest. Section 11 does the legal work in three sentences: the grantor quitclaims all of the grantor's interest in the described land; the joining spouse consents to the conveyance and to the alienation of any homestead exemption under Section 26-2-301(b), while conveying no interest and making no covenant of title. Each signer has a signature block and an acknowledgment certificate of its own, so the two signatures can be taken on different days or before different notaries. Land that came to one spouse before the marriage, land that arrived by inheritance or gift, and land deeded to one spouse alone are the title patterns this configuration recites. The form is not set up for two record owners conveying together, or for a trustee, executor, or entity signing in a representative capacity.

A release, not a promise

What passes is the grantor's interest exactly as it stands. T.C.A. Section 66-5-103(2), Tennessee's statute of sufficient deed forms, prints the quitclaim in a single sentence, and a deed carrying that substance conveys the grantor's right, title, and interest with no covenant to sue on. Deeds of trust, judgment liens, easements, restrictions, and unpaid property taxes travel with the land. Searchers reach the instrument as a quitclaim deed, a quit claim deed, or a quick claim deed.

The sworn figure, not the appraisal

Recording a Tennessee deed collects the state transfer tax, thirty seven cents per one hundred dollars of consideration or value, stated on county schedules as $3.70 per $1,000 and collected from the grantee before the instrument records. A deed in the statutory quitclaim form conveying only the grantor's interest is taxed under Section 67-4-409(a)(4) on the actual consideration rather than on value, a materially different figure on a transfer recited at ten dollars. Section 13 carries the oath that figure rests on, sworn by the grantee or the grantee's agent before an officer authorized to administer oaths.

What the register reads at the counter

Tennessee writes several recording requirements into the deed itself, and the numbered sections collect each one: the derivation of title recital of Section 66-24-110; the name and address of the new owner and of the party responsible for the property taxes under Section 66-24-114; the assessor's parcel identification number under Section 66-24-122; the source of the legal description under Section 66-24-121; the property identification map number and improved property notation Section 66-24-113 calls for in metropolitan Nashville and Davidson County; and the preparer statement of Section 66-24-115. Where an instrument leaves no room for the register's certificate, Section 8-13-108(a)(6) lets the register add a page at the page fee, so the form reserves the top of the first page for the stamp.

The download holds the blank deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example set in Rutherford County, and a plain language guide walking each section, the two certificates, the sworn oath, and the filing itself. All of it describes Tennessee law generally, for information, and none of it is legal advice.

In Colorado a Release of a Deed of Trust without the original note must be efiled - the Recorder said it had to be Simplifile or CSC Global neither of whom are designed to do a 1 off filing (you have to subscribe). Fortunately, I found Deeds.com - they were great. helped me work through a couple clerical issues and it is done. I am so happy and pleased. I would give them more stars if I could. I will spread the word among the realtors and title companies who couldn't help that there is a better option.

The beneficiary deed was acceptable to the county clerk and my notarized official deed was mailed to me. The Missouri-based deed met with official approval so all is well in the land that time forgot.

I downloaded the Lady Bird deed. The process was quick and easy to download. Just select your county, fill out the form. You will need the property description from your original deed. In my case I had to go downtown Wayne County (Detroit). (Make an appt online). 1st you will have to get the property tax certified to ensure all taxes are paid to date (5th floor at the Wayne County Treasurer office). Give them the form you just filled out and they will stamp certified $5. After that take the form to the Register of Deeds (7th floor) appt needed. $18. Make sure it is properly notarized and all signatures completed. Once approved, they will scan it, stamp it, give it back with a receipt and mail a copy also. All Done. Worked beautifully. My co worker go a lawyer and paid over $250. I just used deeds.com and total for forms and going downtown with notarizing was less than $40 Yea!

My mind is blown! For some reason, our veteran title companies wouldn't record our deed but luckily, the assessor's page recommended Deeds and other sites to e-record. It was so simple and so convenient!
