A Virginia quitclaim deed form (sometimes called a quick claim deed or quit claim deed) transfers Virginia real estate from the current owner (grantor) to the new owner (grantee) without a warranty of title. The grantee acquires only the interest that the grantor had.

The only way to change a recorded deed is to have a new deed prepared and recorded in the Clerk's Office Land Records Department. Once a document is recorded, it cannot be changed.
