Indiana Warranty Deed from Individual to Corporation
Understanding this form
A warranty deed from individual to corporation is a legal document used to transfer real property from an individual owner (the grantor) to a corporation (the grantee). This form assures that the grantor fully owns the property and has the legal right to transfer it, providing protection to the corporation against future claims. Unlike other instruments, a warranty deed includes guarantees regarding the ownership and condition of the property, making it a preferred choice for corporate transactions involving property transfer.

Typically, the lender will provide you with a copy of the deed of trust after the closing. The original warranty deeds are often mailed to the grantee after they are recorded. These are your original copies and should be kept in a safe place, such as a fireproof lockbox or a safe deposit box at a financial institution.
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. The office of the Recorder of Deeds maintains a set of indexes about each deed recorded, for an easy search. 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.
