Special Warranty Deed Overview:
A Special Warranty Deed, sometimes referred to as a Limited Warranty Deed is a type of real estate deed where the grantor (seller) warrants the title only against defects that arose during their ownership of the property. The grantor does not warrant against defects that existed before they acquired the property. This type of deed provides less protection to the grantee (buyer) compared to a general warranty deed, which offers a warranty against all title defects, regardless of when they arose.
Key Features of a Special Warranty Deed:
Limited Warranty: The seller guarantees that there are no legal claims or title defects that arose during their period of ownership, such as liens or encumbrances.
Risk to Buyer: The buyer accepts a higher risk with a special warranty deed because the protection is limited to the duration of the seller's ownership.
Common Use: This deed type is commonly used in commercial real estate transactions or in sales where the seller has owned the property for a brief period and therefore prefers not to provide a warranty for a time before they owned the property.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

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.

This was such a money saver. I was told by someone at the courthouse that I had to have a lawyer prepare the paper work for my mom. They stated that family members couldn't prepare the papers. I was hopeful when I found that I could prepare the survivorship affidavit on Deeds. I was able to prepare everything myself and had no issues today when at the courthouse for all the changes. Thank you!

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!

They must have busy when I applied. The screen said it should be done in under10 mins unless heavier traffic. I was a little nervous because of a time deadline. It was completed in 45 mins and for under $30 it was worth every penny to have my deed details at my fingertips. So I give it a 5 on ease of use and quick handling. You can get it done less expensively, but great in a time crunch.
