Long story short: If you are the buyer, then the warranty deed is more favorable to you because it provides a more solid legal protection. If you're the seller, the quitclaim deed is more favorable to you.
The key distinctions include: Interest transferred – A quitclaim deed conveys only the grantor's current ownership share, which may be incomplete. A warranty deed transfers the property in its entirety. Warranties and protection – Quitclaim deeds provide zero warranties or protection for the grantee.
Because a quitclaim deed offers no protection for buyers, it should not be used during traditional real estate sales. There is no guarantee of a clear title. Instead, quitclaim deeds are used when there is a property transfer outside of a real estate sale.
There are three types of deeds in North Carolina and each offer different types of protection. The three deeds are: (1) general warranty deed, (2) special warranty deed, and (3) quitclaim deed.
General warranty deeds give the grantee the most legal protection, while special warranty deeds give the grantee more limited protection. A quitclaim deed gives the grantee the least protection under the law.
This is because a quitclaim deed offers the lowest level of protection. When writing a quitclaim deed, the grantor isn't offering any protection or warranty to the grantee.
A general warranty deed is used to transfer real property from one person to another. This type of deed offers the greatest protection for the buyer and has specific requirements for what must be included in the document.
