Pre-qualifying with a lender can expedite the home buying transaction. Qualify: To meet a mortgage lender's approval requirements. Qualifying Ratios: Comparisons of a borrower's debts and gross monthly income. Quiet Enjoyment: The right of a property owner or tenant to enjoy his or her property without interference.  Disruption of quiet enjoyment may constitute a nuisance. Leases and rental agreements often contain a "covenant of quiet enjoyment," expressly obligating the landlord to see that tenants have the opportunity to live undisturbed. Quitclaim Deed: A deed that transfers whatever ownership interest the transferor has in a particular property.  The deed does not guarantee anything about what is being transferred, including an actual ownership interest.  For example, a divorcing husband may quitclaim his interest in certain real estate to his ex-wife, officially giving up any legal interest in the property.  A quit claim deed may also be used to clear up a cloud on the title to the property in cases where there is a question of a possible ownership claim. # -  A -  B -  C -  D -  E -  F -  G -  H -  I -  J -  K -  L -  M -  N -  O -  P -  Q -  R -  S -  T -  U -  V -  W -  X -  Y -  Z
