Requirements for recording deeds, real estate security instruments, and releases can be found in Section 59.330 Missouri Revised Statutes. Such instruments must be acknowledged according to law and contain a legal description. The mailing address of the grantee must be contained within the instrument. The name of any signatory must be typed, printed, or stamped below the signature line.

For property located in the City of St. Louis, the grantor and the grantee must sign deeds of conveyance, deeds of trust and leases.

A recorded quitclaim deed will prevail over a prior unrecorded warranty deed if the person receiving the quitclaim deed is a bona fide purchaser. (120 Mo. 498)
