Virginia Warranty Deed from Individual to Limited Liability Company
What is this form?
This form is a Warranty Deed from an individual to a Limited Liability Company (LLC) that legally conveys property ownership from the grantor (individual) to the grantee (LLC). This deed ensures that the grantor owns the property free of liens or other encumbrances, providing a guarantee of clear title to the grantee. It is important to use this type of deed when transferring property to an LLC, as it differs from other forms, like Quitclaim Deeds, which do not offer the same level of warranty and protection for the buyer.
