Warranty deed
Real estate transfer with title guarantee / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A warranty deed is a type of deed where the grantor (seller) guarantees that they hold clear title to a piece of real estate and has a right to sell it to the grantee (buyer), in contrast to a quitclaim deed, where the seller does not guarantee that they hold title to a piece of real estate. A general warranty deed protects the grantee against title defects arising at any point in time, extending back to the property's origins.[1] A special warranty deed protects the grantee only against title defects arising from the actions or omissions of the grantor.[1]
