FAQ
Most current deeds fall into one of four categories: 1) General Warranty, 2) Special Warranty, 3) Quit Claim deed, and 4) Bargain and Sale deed. General Warranty Deed — The General Warranty deed is often referred to simply as a warranty deed.
The key difference between the two is that with a warranty deed, the grantor is guaranteeing that they will defend the title of a property, in the present and in the future. This leaves an opening for the grantee to sue the grantor if any issues with the title arise, at any point in time.
A grant deed, also known as a special or limited warranty deed, is a legal document used to transfer real estate between a previous owner (the grantor) and a new owner (the grantee).
General warranty deed It's the type of deed that offers the most buyer protection. When committing to a general warranty deed, the seller is promising there are no liens against the property, and if there were, the seller would compensate the buyer for those claims.
The “warranty deed” is like a grant deed, except that it contains additional promises. Specifically, a warranty deed expressly warrants the title to the property and the quiet possession of the property the grantee.
The main difference between a grant deed vs. warranty deed is the level of protection offered. A warranty deed offers a higher level of protection than a grant deed. With a grant deed, the grantor is guaranteeing that they haven't sold the property to anyone else, and that it is clear of any liens or restrictions.
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.
A real estate lawyer assists in preparing the new deed, ensuring it's signed before a notary public, recording it with the county's Recorder of Deeds office, paying any applicable fees, and obtaining a copy of the recorded deed.
May I make out my own deed? Yes you may, however, we always recommend consulting an attorney regarding property transfers and changes, because minor changes in the wording of the document can completely change the legal meaning of the document.
