FAQ
This form is a warranty deed used in California to transfer real property with a guarantee of clear title. It can name an individual or entities such as a limited partnership or LLC as the grantor or grantee, documenting the transfer, the property description, and signatures to record a title transfer with warranty protection.
An LLC warranty deed is a deed where an LLC acts as grantor or grantee to transfer property with a warranty of title. In this California form, an LLC's involvement is supported by including the grantor’s and grantee’s details, the property description, any liens, and required signatures to ensure a record of clear title.
The grantor is the party transferring ownership and giving the warranty of title. This form permits the grantor to be an individual, a limited partnership, or an LLC, and it requires listing the grantor’s name and the property description to document the transfer.
The grantee is the new title holder after the transfer. This form records both grantor and grantee details, the property description, and any liens or encumbrances so the county recorder can reflect the grantee's ownership with the warranty of title.
Not necessarily. The grantor is the party transferring ownership; the owner is who holds title. In this form, the grantor could be an individual, partnership, or LLC, and the document identifies who will own the property after the transfer to ensure clarity in records.
This form accommodates an individual, limited partnership, or LLC as either grantor or grantee, while still conveying a warranty of title. It requires detailed grantor/grantee information, a property description, liens or encumbrances, and signatures, providing California-recordable protection that may differ from a standard deed focused on individuals.
