Answer
use a document called a "quit claim deed". It allows the two other people to sign away all rights to the real-property. The quit claim deed is of no value however until it has been recorded at the county recorders office.
Since a quit claim deed is a legal and binding document, it must be "signed, sealed and delivered". That term refers to the legal signatures of the affectted parties, "sealed" refers to the notary or lawyer's seal and "delivered" refers to delivery at the county recorders office. Signing can take place at the recorders office in many states, but you'll need to find out about local laws to see what works where YOU live.
