Generally, yes. The grantor on a deed is the one who owns the property and is transferring it to the grantee. Once the deed has been executed and delivered to the grantee the grantee is the new owner and they must record the deed in the land records as proof of their ownership. The subsequent death of the grantor has no effect on the grantee's ownership.
A deed becomes "legal" when it is fully executed and delivered to the grantee. At that moment the ownership is transferred to the grantee but it can only be held against the grantor until it is recorded. It becomes notice to the world that the land has a new owner as soon as it's recorded in the land records.See related question link.A deed becomes "legal" when it is fully executed and delivered to the grantee.

This is a means of transferring ("selling") real estate from one owner to another without triggering specific warranties of any kind, although it does appear to convey whatever ownership the grantor actually has, without using the words convey or grant. It is somewhat different from a quitclaim deed in which the grantor does not claim to have actually had any interest in the property, but grants whatever he may have had, if any, to the grantee.

Not necessarily, a quit claim deed just assigns all interest from one party to another. I can give you a quit claim deed to the Brooklyn Bridge, assigning you all of my interest in that property. The deed would be legal in that I am assigning all of my interest in the bridge, but you wouldn't have any more interest in the bridge AFTER receiving the deed than you did before, since I do not have any interest in the bridge. If there are other encumbrances against the property, a quit claim deed does not remove those encumbrances and in fact may result in the acceleration of a mortgage repayment, if a current mortgage exists against the property.A Quitclaim deed is often used when people want to change the wording on a deed or to enable the other party to sell the house without needing the signature of anyone else on the deed. I have seen them used to "clean up" the names on a title for the sale of a home or for refinancing. As stated above, the effects of a quitclaim do not eliminate the lien the bank has on the house if the house is not paid for. It does not remove or change the names on the mortgage and those people's responsibility to pay. Clarification:If the grantor on the quitclaim deed owns all the interest in the property in fee then YES you would acquire ownership of the property. If there were any liens and encumbrances you would acquire the land subject to them. In some parts of the country quitclaim deeds are often used to convey real property.
