There is another article quit claim deed which should be merged unless they happen to be different things. Davumaya 19:59, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
- As an attorney, I agree. The correct phrase is quit claim deed. I suggest keeping the "Quit Claim Deed" article and then re-directing Quitclaim Deed" to "Quit Claim Deed". 18:40, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
- From my understanding of this issue, the term is sometimes hyphenated (quit-claim), sometimes written as one word (quitclaim) and is sometimes written as two words (quit claim). The actual legally preferred term varies from state to state and country to country, but most jurisdictions would honor any of these spelling variations. It is also often mistakenly spoken or written as quick-claim, quickclaim and quick claim. My suggestion is that all six terms point to a single, merged article, entitled something like "Quitclaim or Quit Claim Deed (often mistakenly pronounced quick claim)".

"It fails to meet all five traditional tests of a true deed found in common law. " This sentence needs to be expanded or deleted to make sense 151.207.240.4 22:24, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- This statement is incorrect. Quit claim deeds contain no warranties, but they include all five elements required for a deed (see Wikipedia article for deed) under the common law.
Quit Claim Deed and Quitclaim Deed are the same thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.184.65.186 (talk) 21:27, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
