Questions answered? Let's get started!
One signature line carries this deed: a single Vermont property owner releasing whatever interest that owner holds, with one acknowledgment certificate to complete and no co-grantor blocks left over. This is a Vermont quitclaim deed set up for an individual grantor, the one-owner configuration of the instrument that also appears in searches as a quit claim deed or quick claim deed.
A release of whatever the grantor holds
Vermont has no statutory quitclaim form and no statute that implies covenants into an ordinary deed, so the instrument does its work entirely through its express words. This deed uses the traditional Vermont granting language, remises, releases, and forever quitclaims, and states plainly that it conveys only the interest the grantor holds at delivery, if any, with no covenant or warranty of title. The grantee takes subject to whatever the record already carries, which is exactly why the quitclaim form dominates transfers between people who already know the title: a divorced co-owner releasing a half interest after the decree, relatives consolidating inherited fractional shares in one name, an owner clearing a stray interest that clouds the record. Under 27 V.S.A. section 342, the deed binds the grantor and the grantor's heirs from delivery, and recording in the municipal land records is what makes it effectual against everyone else.
One grantor, and a second block that waits for the homestead
The form recites exactly one grantor. Ten numbered sections collect the grantor, the grantee, the consideration recital, the town or city and county where the land lies, the legal description, the street address, the source of title, and known matters affecting title, followed by the operative conveyance, one grantor signature block, and one acknowledgment certificate in the wording of Vermont's statutory short form. Then comes the section that distinguishes a Vermont deed from most states' one-owner forms: under 27 V.S.A. section 141, a married owner's conveyance of the homestead is inoperative as to the homestead unless the owner's spouse joins in the execution and acknowledgment. The deed carries that joinder language, a labeled joining spouse signature block, and a second acknowledgment certificate, completed only when the property conveyed is the homestead of a married grantor; in every other case the blocks stay blank and the section states on its face that it has no effect. Two co-owners releasing their interests together present a different signing pattern, with a separate signature and acknowledgment for each grantor, and this form is not set up as a two-grantor instrument.
Recorded with the town clerk, and the return that travels with the deed
Vermont records land documents by town or city, not by county, so the completed deed goes to the clerk of the municipality where the land sits, at the statewide fee of $15 per page. The filing that most often decides whether the deed is recorded the day it is presented is not the deed at all: under 32 V.S.A. section 9608, the town clerk cannot record a deed evidencing a transfer unless a complete Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, accompanies it along with the required Act 250 certificate. The transfer tax runs 1.25 percent of value plus a 0.22 percent clean water surcharge, with a reduced bracket on the first $200,000 of a principal residence, and the exemptions in 32 V.S.A. section 9603, including certain family transfers without consideration, are claimed on the return itself. The guide walks through the return, the tax brackets, and the recording steps at the moment they come up. Execution is simple by comparison: the grantor acknowledges the deed before a notary public, no subscribing witnesses are required, and the statute makes the acknowledgment valid even without an official notary stamp.
What the download contains
The package contains the quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF with a non-recorded instructions page, a completed example showing every entry filled in for a Milton, Chittenden County fact pattern with the spousal joinder in use, and a plain language guide that covers each numbered section, the ways grantees may hold title in Vermont, the homestead joinder rule, and the recording process. The materials describe Vermont law in general terms and are not legal advice.

Thanks for making the Quitclaim Mineral Deed easy to understand, and the process so affordable.
Thank you, Elizabeth. We're glad the Quitclaim Mineral Deed package made the process clear and accessible. Mineral rights conveyances can feel intimidating without the right tools, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

This was a seamless process. It probably took one minute to fill out my information and upload the document. It was formatted and sent immediately. It was processed the next day at the county recorders office. I have zero complaints. Before finding this company I spent an entire day calling and leaving messages at other e-filing companies like simplfile and others but they all required subscriptions. I just needed to file a single document now and then so that was not a good fit. (And those companies I found out still require the customer to do all the work!). Deeds.com kept me informed throughout the process every step. I'm happy to write this review. Thank you
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
