Does a quitclaim deed give you ownership?
I want to learn how these work. Can anyone explain?

Caveat- I'm a Pennsylvania lawyer. That being said, a quitclaim deed gives you the exact same rights as the party conveying title to you. So if there are liens against the property, for instance, those liens would remain after you take title. Preferably, you would have a title search performed and receive a warranty deed, which would protect you against claims against the property.
