A New Mexico quit claim deed is a legal form that can be used to convey real property from a seller ("grantor") to a buyer ("grantee"). A quitclaim is different from a warranty deed because it comes with no guarantee. Instead, the grantor is only selling whatever interest they may own in the property.
