Riddle. Do you know what they call an unsigned Deed?
Answer. A worthless piece of paper.
An unsigned deed and $1.25 might buy you coffee at Starbucks, and provide you with a napkin.
Bouvier's makes a fine door stop, but has no legal standing whatsoever, it is a basic source for legal definitions and it has no legal standing of any kind.
If a Deed isn't signed and authenticated according to local law it has no validity at all.
The only thing a Quit Claim Deed grants is whatever interest the signer has in the given property, if they have none, then all you have is a Deed granting you an interest in nothing. It won't give you any interest in the property unless the person signing it has some interest.
