New York Warranty Deed from Individual to Corporation
About this form

This specific warranty deed ensures that the grantor conveys the property free from encumbrances, except for reserved rights such as oil, gas, and minerals. It is essential for individuals wishing to formally transfer property to a corporate entity while guaranteeing their title against future claims, setting it apart from other types of deeds, like quitclaim deeds which do not offer such warranties.
