Secure Title Warranty For Free

A warranty deed is a legal real estate document that protects the buyer and ensures that the seller holds a clear title to the property, has no outstanding liens or mortgages, and there will be no future claim to the title of the property.

A warranty of title is a guarantee from the seller that they can legally sell the home and that there are no liens on it. A lien on a home gives someone a legal claim to a portion of a property for money owed.

A general warranty deed must include the following to be valid: The name and address of the seller (called the grantor) The name and address of the buyer (called the grantee) A legal description of the property (found on the previous deed) A statement that the grantor is transferring the property to the grantee.

An implied warranty that the buyer shall have and enjoy quiet possession of the goods; An implied warranty that the goods shall be free from any charge or encumbrance in favor of any third party not declared or known to the buyer before or at the time when the contract is made.

An implied warranty is automatically presumed regarding the sale of goods or real property, which prevents a risk from transferring to the buyer. An implied warranty is different from an express warranty, where the seller has expressly promised by words (i.e. orally or in writing) or conduct (e.g., sample or model).

A quit claim deed does not contain any warranty of title, so the grantor in a quit claim deed makes no promises as to the quality of the grantor's title to the property, or even that that the grantor has any title to the property.

Implied warranties are governed by state laws, not federal laws. The two key types of implied warranties are merchantability and fitness.
