What Is a Quitclaim Deed in Florida and When Should You Use It?

A Florida quitclaim deed (sometimes misspelled “quick claim deed Florida”) is the fastest and simplest way to transfer interest in real property when no title search or warranty is needed. Unlike warranty deeds, the grantor makes no guarantees about clear title—only that they are transferring whatever interest they currently have (which could be 100% or nothing).

Common situations where my clients use a quit claim deed form Florida:

How to Properly Complete and Record a Quit Claim Deed in Florida (2025 Requirements)

Step-by-step instructions I give every client:

  1. Download the free Florida quit claim deed form PDF above.
  2. Insert names exactly as they appear on current deed (including middle initials).
  3. Use full legal description – copy from current deed or tax bill (never abbreviate).
  4. Include parcel ID and property address (required in most counties).
  5. Two witnesses + notary – Florida still requires two witnesses for individuals (F.S. 695.26).
  6. Consideration – use “$10.00 and other good and valuable consideration” (avoids higher doc stamps if gift).
  7. Documentary stamp taxes – $0.70 per $100 of consideration (gifts under $1M usually $10 minimum) – see floridarevenue.com.
  8. Recording fees – typically $10 first page + $8.50 each additional (varies slightly by county).

Special Situations & Variations

Timeshare Quit Claim Deed Florida

Timeshares use the exact same form. Include the full legal description from your timeshare deed (week number, unit, resort name, and county). Most resorts also require their own resignation letter—happy to provide that template too.

Adding Right of Survivorship in Florida

Use exact wording: “JOHN SMITH and JANE SMITH, husband and wife, as Joint Tenants with Full Rights of Survivorship” or “as Tenants by the Entirety” if married.

Lady Bird (Enhanced Life Estate) Quit Claim Deed

My template includes optional Lady Bird language that retains full control during life while avoiding probate.

Final Reminder

While thousands of Floridians successfully use quit claim deeds every year without attorneys, mistakes can cloud title for decades. When in doubt—especially with mortgages, homestead, or large estates—consult a Florida-licensed real estate attorney.
