Indiana Warranty Deed from Individual to Corporation

A Warranty Deed from Individual to Corporation is a legal document that facilitates the transfer of property ownership from an unmarried individual (the grantor) to a corporation (the grantee).

Signing (§ 32-21-2-3) All deed must be executed by one of the following: judge, clerk of a court of record, county auditor, county recorder, notary public, mayor of a city in Indiana or any other state, commissioner appointed in a state other than Indiana by the governor of Indiana, clerk of the city county council
The original deed is returned to the owner of the property from the office of the recorder after proper entry.

Almost all states have a grantor-grantee index including a reference to all documents recorded.
Contrary to normal expectations, the Deed DOES NOT have to be recorded to be effective or to show delivery, and because of that, the Deed DOES NOT have to be signed in front of a Notary Public. However, if you plan to record it, then it does have to be notarized as that is a County Recorder requirement.
