Looking for a FREE quitclaim deed form? They're out there — and Arizona county recorders hand them back every day. Generic free forms usually fail at least one of Arizona's basic requirements: the formatting rules of A.R.S. § 11-480, the required Affidavit of Property Value, or a properly worded notary acknowledgment.
A rejected deed costs you the recording fee, the trip to the recorder, and days of delay — then you're back where you started. The forms below are drafted for Arizona specifically by Standard Legal, backed by their refund policy if the recorder rejects your form.

How to Record Your Quitclaim Deed in Arizona
Once you've completed your deed, here's what Arizona law requires to get it recorded:
- Complete the deed in full. Include the grantor and grantee names, the full legal description of the property (not just the street address), and the consideration. The legal description appears on your existing deed or your county assessor's records.
- Check the formatting. Arizona law (A.R.S. § 11-480) requires pages no larger than 8½" × 14", print no smaller than 10-point type, and a 2-inch top margin on the first page. The forms in this download are already formatted to meet these rules.
- Sign before a notary. The grantor's signature must be acknowledged by a notary public (A.R.S. § 33-401) — unsigned or un-notarized deeds are rejected on the spot. No notary nearby? Arizona permits remote online notarization, so you can notarize your deed online in minutes from your computer or phone.
- Prepare the Affidavit of Property Value. Most transfers must be accompanied by an Affidavit of Property Value (A.R.S. § 11-1133). Many family transfers qualify for an exemption instead — you'll list the exemption code under A.R.S. § 11-1134 directly on the deed.
- Record with your county recorder. File in the county where the property is located (A.R.S. § 33-411). Every Arizona county charges a flat recording fee, not a percentage of your property's value — your county recorder's office can confirm the current amount. Find your county's office details in our county recorder directory.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why pay $14.95 when free quitclaim deed forms exist online?
Free generic forms are the most common reason Arizona recorders reject deeds — wrong formatting under A.R.S. § 11-480, missing Affidavit of Property Value, or a defective notary block. A rejection costs you the recording fee, the trip, and days of delay. This download is drafted for Arizona specifically by Standard Legal, backed by their refund policy if your form is rejected.
What's included in the $14.95 Arizona quitclaim deed download?
You receive deed forms from Standard Legal — including quitclaim, warranty, and survivorship deed options — drafted to meet Arizona's recording requirements, along with step-by-step instructions.

Will the form work in any Arizona county?
Yes. The forms are built to meet Arizona law for use in all 15 Arizona counties, formatted to the recording requirements of A.R.S. § 11-480.
What else do I need to record my deed in Arizona?
Your signature must be acknowledged before a notary, and most transfers require an Affidavit of Property Value under A.R.S. § 11-1133 — or an exemption code under A.R.S. § 11-1134 for qualifying transfers such as those between family members or into a trust. Arizona county recorders charge a flat recording fee, set per county — your county recorder's office can confirm the current amount.
What happens if my form is rejected by the county recorder?
The download is risk-free — Standard Legal provides a full refund if your form is rejected.
