A Special Warranty Deed is similar to a General Warranty Deed however it only contains two basic warranties:

b. That the property was not encumbered during the time the grantor held title, except as otherwise noted in the deed.
In a special Warranty Deeds the grantor may include additional warranties but they must be specifically stated in the deed.

Wasn’t what I expected
Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

Very helpful and informative. It has saved me time going to get the forms at county recorder / clerk (as my county and state websites dont offer forms on their sites) and also provided help understanding the uses of the specific deed I needed to use.
Thank you Eric. Have a great day!

Excellent service. Pay your fee, download the form and fill out according to specific instructions. Then, again according to instructions, take it to the county clerk's office and have it recorded. It could not be easier.
Thank you!
