Best Answer

A quitclaim deed says the signer no longer has any ownership or responsibilities to the property in question. However, if there is a mortgage in the signers name, he or she is still responsible for that debt, even though they no longer own the property. If a person files bankruptcy after signing a quitclaim deed, any mortgage owed is still factored into the bankruptcy proceedings. If the court so deems it, and it is a common practice, filing a quitclaim deed just prior to filing for bankruptcy can be considered fraud. It is best to consult a bankruptcy attorney familiar with local laws prior to signing any document.
