Questions answered? Let's get started!
On this deed, the signature line does not belong to an individual owner in the usual sense: it belongs to a trustee, signing for a trust that holds title to Vermont real estate. This Vermont quitclaim deed is set up for the trustee grantor pattern, a deed that identifies the trust by name and date, recites that the grantor acts solely as trustee and not individually, and passes whatever interest the trust holds, without warranty of title.
A deed signed in a trustee's capacity
The grantor section names the trustee, and a dedicated trust section recites the name of the trust and the date of the trust instrument. The operative clause then remises, releases, and forever quitclaims all right, title, and interest the grantor holds as trustee, citing the trustee's power to sell and convey trust property under the trust instrument and 14A V.S.A. §§ 815 and 816, and binding the trust property rather than the trustee personally. Trusts move Vermont real estate in a handful of recurring patterns: a trustee distributing a home to a beneficiary after the settlor's death, a trustee of a revocable trust deeding property back to the settlor, and a trustee delivering a no-warranty conveyance to resolve a title question. Those transfers present the recitals this deed carries.
The form recites exactly one trustee grantor and one trust. A deed from an individual record owner, or from co-trustees whose trust instrument requires joint action, follows a different signing pattern than the single signature block and single certificate this form carries.
What a quitclaim conveys in Vermont
Vermont has no statutory quitclaim form and no statute that implies covenants of title from a deed's operative words, so the instrument's own language controls. This deed states that it conveys without covenant or warranty of title and passes only the interest, if any, the trustee holds at delivery; the grantee takes subject to whatever then affects title. That is the familiar trade of every quitclaim deed, sometimes searched as a quit claim deed or non-warranty deed: simplicity in exchange for no title promises, the reason the form appears so often in transfers between related parties and in conveyances into and out of trusts, where the parties already know the title.
The representative-capacity acknowledgment
Because the signer acts for a trust, the notary certificate on this form follows the representative-capacity short form of 26 V.S.A. § 5368(2): the record is acknowledged by the named individual as trustee of the named trust. The certificate carries the commission number element that 26 V.S.A. § 5367 lists for tangible records, and 27 V.S.A. § 341(a) makes the acknowledgment valid even without an official stamp affixed to the notary's signature. Vermont's deed statutes state no witness requirement, so one trustee signature and one certificate complete execution.
Authority is the other half of a trustee conveyance. A certification of trust under 14A V.S.A. § 1013, a sworn certificate prepared and recorded separately and not included in this package, documents the trust's existence, the trustee's identity, and the trustee's powers in the same municipal land records, and serves as conclusive proof of the matters it certifies, subject to the exceptions stated in that section.
Recording with the town clerk, not a county
Vermont keeps its land records with town and city clerks rather than county recorders, so the completed deed records in the municipality where the land lies, at the statewide fee of $15 per page. Under 32 V.S.A. § 9608, the clerk cannot record a deed unless a completed Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, accompanies it, together with the required Act 250 certificate. The return carries its own $15 filing fee, and an exemption claim, including the exemptions for certain no-consideration trust transfers under 32 V.S.A. § 9603, is documented on that same return.
What the download contains
The download contains the blank Vermont quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example showing the deed filled in for a Chittenden County fact pattern from the trust identification through the representative-capacity acknowledgment, and a plain-language guide that walks through every section of the form, the signing formalities, and the recording steps at the town clerk's office. The materials describe Vermont law in general terms and are not legal advice.

This website was very helpful in explaining what a "gift" deed is and how to execute it. I didn't want to incur legal fees for a simple transaction and this website helped me avoid that.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The service was prompt and attentive to my questions. I would've just appreciated a heads up that I also needed to contact the county directly (and provide contact info) to receive a certified copy of the document (Notice of Commencement) in order to submit the certified copy to the Building Department. This was an extra step that I haven't had to complete before using another eRecording service. Even if this extra step is a result of the county's system. I would still have expected a head's up (since there wasn't any info regarding this on the county's site for eRecording).
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Our firm is working remotely and a lot of court services are limited with the corona-virus shutdowns, but we needed to record a Deed at the last minute. There was no other way we'd could get it done that quick without Deeds.com (staff) helped us work out some kinks and we got it recorded in less than 1 business day! Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it. Glad we could help.

The guide I needed was very easy to understand and the template was easy to complete. I had a property attorney review the deed before I had it registered and she was impressed. She said she couldn't have written it better herself! Definitely worth the money instead of paying high dollar attorney fees for a simple task.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
