Quit Claim Deed Grantee ?

Javier Perez
Posted

Hi Everyone,

 I have a question that was brought to me by a friend. They were looking over documents for their father. He's elderly.  They noticed that recently their father had Quit Claim Deeded his property to include his current wife to their home. Which is perfectly normal.

Just like a regular deed throughout the main part of the deed, it references him as the "grantor" and then him and his wife as the "grantee". WHich again is normal. However at the top left of the form under the "Prepared by and Return to" section after their lawyer information is listed it states "Grantee Name: (Random Name of person they don't know)". Nowhere else on the main body of the form is that name listed. 

Their obvious concern is that someone tried to con them into signing the property over to them somehow. Has any ever seen this before?
