Campbell County Quitclaim Deed Form

This is the base Tennessee quitclaim deed: one or two people releasing whatever interest they hold in a described Tennessee parcel, to one or two people receiving it, with no covenant of title behind the transfer. The party blanks are deliberately empty of ownership words, because in Tennessee those words settle a question the statute leaves alone.

The survivorship Tennessee declines to supply

Most states hand co-owners a default. Tennessee took one away. Under T.C.A. Section 66-1-107, a deceased joint tenant's share descends to that tenant's heirs as in tenancy in common, which strips the common law survivorship the label once carried. Two grantees named with nothing more hold as tenants in common, and a share passes through an estate at death. Survivorship arrives only by express words, and even then it is not indestructible: Bryant v. Bryant, 522 S.W.3d 392 (Tenn. 2017), holds that an expressly created joint tenancy with right of survivorship can be severed by one cotenant's own conveyance. Spouses are the exception the abolition never reached, holding by the entirety. So Section 2 prints no ownership language and takes the grantees' own designation instead.

One statutory sentence does the conveying

T.C.A. Section 66-5-103(2) sets out the quitclaim in a single line, and Section 10 carries its substance: the grantor quitclaims all of the grantor's right, title, and interest in the land described above, without covenant or warranty. Keeping that wording is not decoration. Under T.C.A. Section 67-4-409(a)(4), a deed in the statutory quitclaim substance conveying only the grantor's interest is measured on what the grantee actually paid, while warranty style fee language is measured on consideration or value, whichever is larger. The register reads the operative words, not the caption.

One or two names on either side

The form recites free form Grantor and Grantee blocks sized for one or two natural persons apiece, each signing in that person's own capacity, and preprints no marital status, capacity, or vesting. Execution follows the same shape: two grantor signature blocks and two acknowledgment certificates in the substance of the natural person certificate at T.C.A. Section 66-22-107(b), so two people conveying may acknowledge on different days, before different notaries, in different states. A single grantor leaves the second block and its certificate blank. Two siblings dividing land they inherited jointly, a former co-owner releasing a fractional share to the one keeping the parcel, and a parent adding an adult child to a family lot, present the count patterns this deed accommodates. It is not set up for a signature made in another name, so an entity, a trustee, an executor, or an agent under a power of attorney signs through a different architecture, nor for three or more owners on a side.

Recitals the register reads before the stamp

Tennessee puts unusual weight on the face of the document. Section 8 collects the derivation of title recital of T.C.A. Section 66-24-110, naming the instrument the grantor's interest came from, with its book and page; four more sections gather the owner and tax party entries, the assessor's parcel number, the description source, and the metropolitan map and improved property notation. Their consequences differ, and the guide separates them: some bar receipt at the counter, while Section 66-24-121 says omission does not affect the validity of the registration. One newer rule reaches only fresh parcels, T.C.A. Section 66-5-105 as amended in 2026 by Public Chapter 996, which routes the description of land never before described of record to a registered land surveyor.

The figure the grantee swears to

Tennessee taxes the recording, and the number comes from an oath, not an appraisal. T.C.A. Section 67-4-409(a)(1)(F) puts the swearing on the grantee side: the grantee, an agent, or a trustee for the grantee states under oath the actual consideration or the value, whichever is greater. Section 12 carries that statement with its own signature line and a jurat, since an oath as to an amount and an acknowledgment of a signature are separate notarial acts, plus a line for an exemption. A false oath is punishable as perjury. Searchers reach this instrument as a quitclaim deed, a quit claim deed, or a quick claim deed.

Three files arrive with the purchase: the fillable deed, a Williamson County example worked at full two person capacity, and a plain language guide walking the twelve sections, the ownership forms Tennessee recognizes, both notarial acts, and the filing. These materials are informational, a description of Tennessee law rather than advice about a particular title.
