D. None of the above

Answer 1

A quitclaim deed conveys whatever interest the grantor has in the property, without guarantees of title validity or freedom from encumbrances.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quitclaim deed conveys whatever interest the grantor has in the property. This type of deed transfers any ownership, title, or interest the grantor has in the property, but it does not guarantee that the grantor's title is valid. In other words, quitclaim deeds do not assure that the grantor actually has any interest to convey, nor do they warrant against any encumbrances (like liens or debts) on the property.

By signing a quitclaim deed, the grantor simply ends their interest in the property, if they have any, without stating the nature of the interest or if it exists at all.
