Questions answered? Let's get started!
The subject of this deed is another deed. A numbered section identifies a conveyance already recorded in a Vermont town's land records by instrument title, date, and book and page; the next section states the error that slipped into it and the information that corrects it; and the operative text confirms everything else the recorded deed did. This is a Vermont quitclaim deed in its corrective configuration, the instrument searchers reach as a correction deed, corrective deed, or confirmatory deed, and under the quit claim and quick claim spellings.
Two deeds on the record, read as one
A recorded deed does not come off the record; the correction goes on beside it. The grantor of the prior deed signs again, the form states the error and the corrected information, and the operative section remises, releases, and forever quitclaims whatever right, title, and interest the grantor holds while confirming and ratifying the prior deed except as corrected. No Vermont statute implies covenants into a quitclaim, so the instrument promises nothing about the title; it repairs the paperwork, not the bargain. An examiner running the chain finds both instruments in the same municipal index and reads them together as one conveyance.
What a correction deed can reach in Vermont
No Vermont statute prescribes a correction procedure for recorded deeds; the boundary comes from Vermont Title Standard 4.1. A grantor who conveyed by an effective, unambiguous deed cannot, by a later deed, substantially change the grantee's name, shrink the premises or the estate, add a condition, or otherwise diminish the prior grant, and a deed that tries does not impair the title the prior deed established. The corrections that live comfortably inside the standard are the clerical ones: a transposed lot number, a misspelled or incomplete name, a wrong book and page in the derivation clause, a dropped plan reference. For a material change, the standard's comment describes a conveyance back from the grantee before the grantor deeds again; this form recites the standard's limits in its operative section, so the record shows the deed staying inside them.
One grantor, signing a second time
The form recites exactly one grantor, the grantor named in the prior deed. Twelve numbered sections run from the parties through the prior-deed identification, the error and its correction, consideration, and the corrected legal description to the conveyance-and-confirmation section, followed by one grantor signature block and one acknowledgment certificate in Vermont's statutory short form wording. A conditional homestead joinder under 27 V.S.A. section 141 waits ahead of the signature blocks with its own spouse entry, signature line, and second certificate, used only when the property is the homestead of a married grantor. A lot number transposed in the description, a grantee's name recorded with a missing initial, and a derivation clause citing the wrong book and page present the pattern this deed recites. The form is not set up as a first conveyance of the property, as an instrument diminishing what the prior deed granted, or as a correction of a deed signed in a representative capacity; each of those follows a different architecture.
Exemption 04, and a return filed at zero tax
The finished correction records in the same clerk's office that holds the deed it corrects, Vermont keeping land records by municipality, at the statewide $15 per page. The transfer tax paperwork travels with it even though a correction ordinarily owes nothing: 32 V.S.A. section 9608 bars the clerk from recording a deed evidencing a transfer until a completed Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, and its Act 250 certificate are in hand, and 32 V.S.A. section 9603(4) exempts transfers that, without additional consideration, confirm or correct a transfer previously recorded, claimed by its number on the return. Where a purported correction moves additional value, the exemption's condition fails and the ordinary rate of 1.25 percent plus the 0.22 percent clean water surcharge reaches it.
What the download contains
The corrective quitclaim deed arrives as a fillable PDF whose first page is a non-recorded instructions sheet, alongside a completed example prepared on a Brattleboro, Windham County record in which a grantor corrects a transposed lot number in a deed to her son, and a plain language guide that treats the twelve numbered sections, the ways a grantee may hold Vermont title, the title-standard limits, notarization, and the path through the transfer tax return to the clerk's counter. The materials describe Vermont law in general terms and are not legal advice.

It is a difficult challenge -- trying to take the needless jargon out of legal transactions so ordinary citizens can manage their affairs. Deeds.com hasn't solved all the problems, but has made a super effort to help us achieve self-sufficiency.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I purchased this thinking I would be able to complete the QuitClaim Deed myself because an example was provided, but you still need to be a lawyer to figure all the wording out. It was not worth the price I paid for it.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Very good information. Easy access and easy to download. All the forms needed for TOD to be notarized and recorded with the county office. Much better than working with a Trust and the expense of lawyers, especially when several parties are involved and the owner of said property knows exactly to whom the property should go. Having forms and instructions available for the public to have their wishes recorded and confirmed makes handling final planning much easier and prevents family members from having the unnecessary task of going through court to solve property distribution issues. Thank you for this site and the forms you provide. I will recommend Deeds.com to those I know who are making final plans.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Process of acquiring an account and submitting a document was VERY easy. Failure was on the Recorders office, for not accepting the survey. Cheers.
Thank you!
Paula B. 4 out of 5 stars
I'm transferring a property into a trust and ordered the QuitClaim Deed. Everything was pretty straight forward and user friendly. However, the Additional Information/Instructions for the Preliminary Change of Ownership Report skips from Section "I" to "M" and does not address "K". It would have been very helpful to have an explanation of the difference between the three options in that section. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The TODD form has been notarized and registered with my county Register of Deeds office, so it works just fine. My only quibble is that when I printed it out, it missed part of the last line of the notary's info and the fine print in the bottom corners. When I printed it at 90% scale, it included those things.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
