The Register of Deeds Office is a place where all transactions having to do with land (including most liens and mortgages) are recorded and maintained so that the public is made aware of their existence. This is also a place where financing statements and security agreements are filed on personal property under the Uniform Commercial Code.
The deed is an instrument by which the buyer obtains title to the piece of property being sold. A deed comes in many forms. The most common source of passing title is called a warranty deed. The seller warrants that he has a good and clear title and guarantees that his predecessors have no interest in the title.
There is also a quit-claim deed. This is used to obtain a release from a person who is believed to have some interest in or claim to the property. By this form of deed, the grantor "quits" any claim he might have.
