A special warranty deed guarantees that the grantor owns and can sell the property. To the best of their knowledge, they are the owner of the property.
Obtain a special warranty deed form: You can obtain a special warranty deed form from a real estate attorney or from the Texas Real Estate Commission. Complete the form: You will need to provide the names and addresses of the grantor and grantee, as well as a description of the property being transferred.
Preparation of the Deed: The seller prepares the warranty deed, detailing the grantor's and grantee's information, the legal description of the property, and the statement of conveyance.
