Bottom Line. When you're looking at purchasing a piece of land, there are 5 main types of deeds that you can use: Warranty Deed, Special Warranty Deed, Quitclaim Deed, Bargain and Sale Deed, and a Grant Deed. A Warranty Deed is the best of the best.

To add, remove, or change a name on a deed, have a lawyer, title company, or other real estate professional prepare the deed. Then, record the new deed with the Department of Records. Note: We recommend that you do not prepare a deed on your own. We also recommend that you get title insurance.

General warranty deeds give the grantee the most protection, special warranty deeds give the grantee more limited protection, and a quitclaim deed gives the grantee the least protection under the law.

What Is the Strongest Type of Deed? For real estate buyers, a general warranty deed provides greater protection than any other type of deed. While it's the best deed for the grantee, it gives the grantor the most liability.

A warranty deed provides protection for the buyer, guaranteeing that the seller has the legal right to sell the property. If there is a property dispute later regarding the guarantor's ownership stake, the buyer can sue for breach of warranty. This is the type of deed used in most typical real estate transactions.

In real estate contracts, the habendum clause refers to the transfer of ownership of a property and any accompanying restrictions. Because the clause begins with the phrase, "To have and to hold," the habendum clause is sometimes called the "to have and to hold clause."

A deed must be notarized before it is recorded or delivered to the new owner. A deed that is not notarized may be, as an alternative, signed by at least one witness who attests that the deed was signed by the owner and delivered to the new owner. New York has statutory model notary certificates for deeds.
