Is a Quit Claim Deed valid when there are two properties on the Quit Claim Deed?

Posted on: 03rd Aug, 2009 05:20 pm
is a quit claim deed valid when there are two properties on the quit claim deed?...one house was sold to the city of houston, and for convenience sake, the city's agent suggested that we include the other house on this quit claim deed, so we wouldn't have to do it again. if it was recorded then, will the quit claim deed be valid on the other house? this was done so that the sons and daughters would relinquish their interest to their mother.
Hi mrod,

As far as I know, one quitclaim deed is valid for one property. You cannot transfer two properties through a single quitclaim deed. I would suggest you to contact a real estate attorney and take his opinion in this regard.

Thanks

I do not find any problem on number of properties on a single quitclaim deed as long as they are paying for the total property registration fees.It should be legal if both the properties are pertaining to the same county.....

keep in touch.....

mrod, your post seems contradictory. here's why i believe that...

the first house was transferred to the city of houston
the second house was "done so that the son and daughter would relinquish their interest to their mother."

it seems like the grantees on these two houses were different - how in the world would it make sense to use one deed?

deed is prepared for one property & we need to specify it's address. how can we prepare deed for 2 different addresses ?

eric are you the same person as mrod1313? this now becomes a most confusing thread.

i am unaware of any way in which you would or could convey 2 properties on the same deed - and in the initial post, we are seeing 2 properties being conveyed to two different people.

where does this misinformation come from?

You can convey two properties with the same deed, but how that is applicable to the original post (which is a confusing mess) is another question.

guest, go back and read it - there's a reference to "one house sold to the city of houston" and another reference to "include the other house" and "that was done so that the sons and daughters would relinquish their interest to their mother."

sorry...sent that a little too quickly as i got interrupted. i meant to finish by saying that the original post was just confusing enough that it brought a whole raft of new questions to the fore. and, of course, there's never been any real clarification.
