In New Jersey, the deed must be in English, identify the seller/buyer (grantor/grantee), name the person that prepared the deed, state the consideration (amount paid) for the transfer, contain a legal description of the property (a survey), include the signature of the grantor and be signed before a notary.
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.
The mortgage company usually prepares this deed as part of the loan package and delivers it to the title company for you to sign at closing. The title company is commonly the trustee to the deed and holds legal title to the property until the loan gets fully repaid.
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.
A statutory warranty deed is different from a warranty deed because it is a shorter form made available through your state's statutes and it may not outright list the promise that the title is guaranteed to be clear. Instead, because it is a statutory form, this guarantee is implied and is still legally enforceable.
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.
