hi leslie schmidt.

Welcome to the forum.

As your aunt has quitclaimed the property to you, you are the sole owner of the property. Even you need not to got go probate here, as you are already the owner of the property. But has the deed been notarized and recorded in the county recorder's office? Otherwise the deed will not be considered as a valid deed.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Best of luck,
Larry
