    There is no such thing as a "quick" claim. The proper term is quit claim.

    If some site is selling quick claim, then they are a fraud most likely, selling something that does not exist. Remember a lot of sites on internet, take money and never delivery a product.

    I would not advise ordering a form online, the wording on deeds must be exact. Use a local attorney or title company

    You can go to your local register of deeds office and make a new Warranty Deed. Basically everything on the existing deed, plus your name. If, however, there is a lender involved, they will have to allow the change and you will become libel for any liens on the property.

    Good point. One might do it like this: If the mother's existing deed recites " ______, ______, and ______ Grantors, ", and , "[OP's mother]", Grantee, the new deed would say "[OP's mother]", Grantor, and "[OP's mother] and OP, as joint tenants, with right of survivorship, not as tenants in common", Grantees.

    I suggest that you consider using the JTWROS language (if JTWROS is allowed in your state) so that one of you dies the property passes to the survivor.

    And, as suggested, get the lender's permission first.
