FAQ
A warranty deed, also known as a general warranty deed, is a legal real estate document between the seller (grantor) and the buyer (grantee). The deed protects the buyer by pledging that the seller holds clear title to the property and there are no encumbrances, outstanding liens, or mortgages against it.
A special warranty deed is a deed to real estate where the seller of the propertyknown as the grantorwarrants only against anything that occurred during their physical ownership. In other words, the grantor doesn't guarantee against any defects in clear title that existed before they took possession of the property.
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.
It's important to note that a warranty deed does not actually prove the grantor has ownership (a title search is the best way to prove that), but it is a promise by the grantor that they are transferring ownership and if it turns out they don't actually own the property, the grantor will be responsible for compensating
Laws § 565.151. Recording (A§ 565.201) Must be filed with the Registry of Deeds. Signing (A§ 565.8) Must be signed with the Grantor(s) in front of a Notary Public or Officer of the court. Step 1 Insert the name of the grantor in the first line. Step 2 Next, fill in the grantor's address.
Corporate warranty deeds offer the seller's guarantee to the buyer in regards to the validity of the chain of title. Generally, special warranty deeds only protect against problems occurring since the seller purchased the property.
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.

A warranty deed is a higher level of protection produced by the seller upon the real estate closing. It includes a full legal description of the property, and confirms the title is clear and free from all liens, encumbrances, or title defects. Most property sales make use of a warranty deed.
