Quitclaim Deeds in Florida
Florida quitclaim deeds are governed by Chapter 689 of the Florida Statutes. Florida has a strict statutory witness requirement: **all deeds must be signed by the grantor in the presence of at least two subscribing witnesses** (Fla. Stat. § 689.01).
Additionally, the grantor's signature must be acknowledged by a notary public to be recorded. The witnesses cannot be parties to the transaction, but they can be family members.
