A West Virginia quit claim deed allows a grantor to release their claim on a property and name a grantee as the new owner, without providing any title warranties. This type of deed, unlike a warranty deed, does not guarantee that the title is free of claims. Therefore, the grantee is responsible for resolving any issues that arise after the deed is recorded.
