A South Dakota quitclaim deed is a conveyance instrument for real property that does not guarantee the title’s condition or the grantor as the legal title holder. If a claim, such as a mechanic’s lien, arises after the property has been conveyed under a quitclaim deed, the grantor will not be held accountable.

Quitclaim deeds are often used for transfers between relatives or other close relationships rather than in real estate sales. A quitclaim deed can also be used to perfect a title defect (e.g., a misspelled name, a missing signature, etc.).
