Quit claim deeds are a convenient way to transfer property among related parties. You might use it, for example, to add a new spouse to the title, or to transfer it to an entity which you control.
But be sure to check with the company which insured your title when the home was last purchased, because you’ll need to have the title policy amended, costing $75-$100 or thereabouts, so it conforms to the new ownership of your property.
If you don’t remember which title company handled the transaction, any Realtor can run a Realist Report which names the title company.
