A Nebraska quit claim deed is a document that conveys property from one to another, but unlike a warranty deed, does not contain a guarantee that the title to the property is clear of encumbrances. Rather, all it transfers is whatever interest a grantor claims to have in the property – this may range from no interest to complete interest. Often these types of deeds are used between close family members or entities. In unfamiliar situations, it would be wise to consult with a trained professional before issuing or submitting payment.
