Warranty Deed Texas

What is warranty deed texas?

A warranty deed in Texas is a legal document used to transfer property ownership rights from one party to another. It provides a guarantee that the property is free from any liens or encumbrances, and that the seller has the legal right to sell the property. By executing a warranty deed, the seller is ensuring that the buyer receives clear and marketable title to the property.

What are the types of warranty deed texas?

In Texas, there are two common types of warranty deeds: general warranty deed and special warranty deed. 1. General Warranty Deed: This type of deed provides the highest level of protection to the buyer. It guarantees that the property is free from any defects in title, both prior to and during the seller's ownership. 2. Special Warranty Deed: This type of deed only provides limited protection to the buyer. It guarantees that the seller has not caused any defects in title during their ownership, but does not cover any defects that may have existed prior to their ownership.
