Questions answered? Let's get started!

A trustee on the grantee line changes what a Virginia deed carries. This quitclaim deed prints a grantee entry that takes the trustee, the name of the trust, and the date of the trust instrument, then releases whatever interest one individual grantor holds into that trustee's hands, in trust and not individually. It is laid out for the land records of the Virginia circuit court clerk where the parcel sits.

One grantor signs, and a trustee receives

The grantor side is fixed at one individual signing personally, with a single signature line and one acknowledgment certificate, since no grantee signs a Virginia deed. Section 4 is where the configuration lives: the trustee with a mailing address, the trust by name, and the date of the trust instrument, so the land records show who holds legal title and under which document. An owner funding a revocable living trust once the trust instrument has been signed, and an owner replacing an earlier deed that named the trust itself instead of its trustee, present the trustee-grantee pattern this deed recites. No second signature line prints, and the grantor side recites no trustee, executor, or attorney-in-fact capacity, so a conveyance back out of a trust runs on different recitals than these.

Title that follows the office

Virginia carries a deed to a trustee past the name written on it. Under Code of Virginia Section 64.2-701, the word trustee includes an original, additional, and successor trustee and a cotrustee. Section 64.2-760(C) then provides that title to all trust property is owned and vested in any successor trustee, upon acceptance of the trusteeship, without any conveyance, transfer, or assignment by the prior trustee. So the deed names the trustee taking title now and speaks of the successor trustees in trust, and a later change in who serves does not, under that section, call for another recorded conveyance.

The covenant words this deed omits

Warranty in Virginia comes from covenant language, not from the caption at the top of the page. Sections 55.1-354 through 55.1-362 give defined effect to phrases such as with general warranty, along with the short covenants of seisin, quiet possession, and further assurances; none of them appear here, and Section 8 states in capital letters that no warranty of title is made or implied. Recording still does its own work, because Section 55.1-407 names the quitclaim form in the recording act and leaves a grantee taking by quitclaim eligible to be a purchaser for value without notice.

An exemption measured by who benefits

A transfer into a living trust ordinarily passes no money, and Virginia answers with a provision aimed at it. Section 58.1-811(A)(12) exempts a deed to trustees of a revocable inter vivos trust where the grantors in the deed and the beneficiaries of the trust are the same persons, other named beneficiaries notwithstanding, and where nothing has passed between the grantor and the beneficiaries. Section 2 of the form collects the consideration, the actual value that Section 58.1-801 measures against the most recent assessment, the Code section relied on, and the classification sentence Section 58.1-811(D) has called for since July 1, 2026 on a quitclaim deed without consideration. Page one also holds the parcel or tax map number, the preparer statement, and the title insurance underwriter entry; the completed example fills all of it for a Prince William County transfer, down to the county's grid parcel identification number.

Authority the deed does not carry

This instrument delivers title. It does not create the trust or hand the trustee any powers, which live instead in the trust instrument and in Title 64.2. That is why a certification of trust under Section 64.2-804, signed separately by the trustee and not included in this package, is what a title company or a clerk reads for proof that the trust exists and that the trustee may act on its behalf.

Searchers reach this instrument as a quit claim deed to a trustee, a deed into a living trust, or a trust transfer deed; this package prepares the Virginia quitclaim deed for one grantor conveying to a trustee. The download holds three items: the fillable deed, the completed Prince William County example, and a plain-language guide that walks the sections one at a time, sets out the vesting choices open to a Virginia grantee, and takes up notarization under Title 47.1 with the fees and taxes due at the counter. These materials describe Virginia law in general terms and are not legal advice.

I couldn't be more pleased or more impressed with the e-recording services I received from deeds.com and from my service representative, KVH. I was able to record documents in approximately half a dozen different counties easily and seamlessly, with a minimum of fuss. The turn around time was incredibly fast. The pricing was incredibly reasonable. I know I have alternatives because, in the past, I have used a competitor service for my recording needs. I won't do that again -- this was an exceptional experience. Thank you for your help!

Was driven to this site by the county website. It took a bit of work having to create an account, etc. The example was useful; however the example only showed both parties in the same county, nor did the instructions mention anything about differing counties. This caused an oversight on my part.

Awesome service! 4 services wouldn't handle a 1-time filing, but Deeds.com got the job done in less than 21 hours, for only $15 (plus filing fees). This saved me days of difficulty and aggravation, esp. during COVID-19 lockdown!

A suggestion: Include instructions on how to add your spouse to the deed, rather than transferring completely to a third party

Reply from Staff

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. Adding a spouse to a deed is a common need, and suggestions like yours help us identify where additional guidance would be useful. We’ll take this into consideration as we continue improving our resources.

Found the forms I needed but had to type these out my self in Word since these forms do not allow any information to be saved. I understand you want this to be proprietary information but you failed to deliver a usable product. I printed this template and built my own in microsoft word. Good examples and instructions with poor execution. I lost hours of typing and nearly lost real estate deals due to these documents not being in a format ready to use. Will be using another service next time or buying these as guides alone.
