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 special warranty deed is a deed to real estate where the seller of the property—known as the grantor—warrants only against anything that occurred during their physical ownership. In other words, the grantor doesn't guarantee against any defects in clear title that existed before they took possession of the property.

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.
