This is an example of a Quit Claim Deed, which is the opposite of a Warranty Deed. With a Warranty Deed, you warrant good title, but with a Quit Claim Deed, you basically convey "whatever rights" you have in a property. You don't take any responsibility for what the rights are, so a Quit Claim Deed is a way of conveying "as is" real estate and conducting a transfer from either you to your trust, or from you to an entity that you control. As with all real estate forms, it is advisable to use an escrow or title company.
