Should you use a grant deed or a quitclaim deed to transfer property into a living trust?
In certain jurisdictions, a grant deed should be used to transfer property, whether it be to a living trust or otherwise. If the property is in California, a Trust Transfer Deed is the preferable method.
In many jurisdictions a quitclaim deed would be fine. It would convey all the interest owned by the grantor. You must check with a local real estate attorney to determine the correct practice in your jurisdiction. Deeds should always be drafted by a professional.
