What Is a Quiet Title Action?

A quiet title action is a lawsuit filed in court to establish legal ownership of real property when that ownership is disputed, uncertain, or challenged. Common reasons to file a quiet title action include:


  • An old mortgage or lien was never properly released
  • A previous deed contains errors or missing information
  • Someone is claiming an interest in the property without legal basis
  • The legal boundary is unclear or overlapping
  • Title insurance uncovered an issue during sale or refinance
  • You acquired property through inheritance or tax sale



If successful, the court issues a judgment that "quiets" all other claims and confirms your ownership, allowing you to move forward with confidence.
