A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
 
AN ACT
  relating to the effect of recording a quitclaim deed.
         BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
         SECTION 1.  Chapter 13, Property Code, is amended by adding
  Section 13.006 to read as follows:
         Sec. 13.006.  EFFECT OF RECORDING QUITCLAIM DEED. After the
  fourth anniversary of the date a quitclaim deed for real property is
  recorded in the deed records of the county in which the real
  property is located, the quitclaim deed:
               (1)  does not affect the question of the good faith of a
  subsequent purchaser or creditor; and
               (2)  is not notice to a subsequent purchaser or
  creditor of any unrecorded conveyance of, transfer of, or
  encumbrance on the real property.
         SECTION 2.  The change in law made by this Act applies only
  to a quitclaim deed recorded on or after the effective date of this
  Act. A quitclaim deed recorded before that date is governed by the
  law in effect immediately before the effective date of this Act, and
  that law is continued in effect for that purpose.
         SECTION 3.  This Act takes effect September 1, 2021.
