Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Florida special warranty deed conveys real property with a covenant that has a boundary. The warranty answers for the grantor's own time in the chain of title, reaching claims that arise by, through, or under the grantor and nothing older than the grantor's ownership. This form prepares that deed for one individual grantor, signing personally, with the execution and recording elements Florida law attaches to every conveyance.
A Warranty That Stops at the Grantor's Ownership
Florida's warranty spectrum runs from the statutory warranty deed, whose covenants reach the entire history of the title, to the quitclaim deed, which carries no covenant at all. The special warranty deed occupies the ground between: a present conveyance in which the grantor stands behind the title only for the grantor's own period of ownership. An easement a prior owner granted, or a defect created three transfers back, belongs to the title examination and the title insurance, not to the grantor's covenant. A lien or claim the grantor created, on the other hand, remains squarely inside the warranty unless the deed lists it as a permitted exception, which is why the form's subject-to section does real work on this instrument.
Drafted Around the Statutory Form
No Florida statute prescribes a special warranty deed. What the statutes do prescribe is the opposite pull: under sections 689.02 and 689.03, Florida Statutes, a deed substantially in the statutory form is held to be a warranty deed with full common-law covenants. This form therefore states its limited covenant expressly, in the by, through, or under language Florida title practice has used for generations, and declares that the deed is not to be construed as a statutory warranty deed, so the limitation controls.
Two Witnesses, a Statutory Certificate, and the Homestead Question
Florida execution has two layers. Section 689.01 requires the grantor to sign in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, and since January 1, 2024, each witness's printed name and post-office address belong on the instrument for recording. Section 695.03 then requires an acknowledgment, and the form reproduces the statutory short form certificate, including the checkboxes for physical presence or online notarization. Because Article X, Section 4 of the Florida Constitution lets a married owner alienate homestead only when the spouse joins, the deed carries a conditional joining spouse section, with its own witness blocks and acknowledgment, completed only when the property is a married grantor's homestead.
Recording With the Clerk
The clerk of the circuit court records the deed in the county where the property lies. The first page reserves the 3 inch by 3 inch clerk space at the top right, the preparer's name and post-office address appear as section 695.26 requires, and documentary stamp tax under section 201.02, 70 cents per $100 of consideration outside Miami-Dade County, is paid at recording. An unrecorded deed binds the parties but gives way to creditors and later purchasers without notice.
The download includes the deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example built on an Orange County fact pattern, and a plain-language guide that walks through every section, the witness and notary blocks, and the recording steps. The materials describe Florida law in general terms and are not legal advice.

Absolutely recommend Deeds.com! The process to recording your document is explained step by step. If you have any questions, you just send a message and almost instantly a staff member will reply. Super quick processing. I uploaded my document late Friday afternoon, it was reviewed by Deeds.com staff and sent to the county for recording on Monday. By Tuesday, my document was successfully recorded by the County Recorder's Office and a copy of my recorded document was available for me, as well!
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Holy cow. I was told by several people that getting a deed recorded would take 7-10 days. So I thought I'd give deeds.com a try with their e-filing service. I created my account and submitted my deed around 4:00 p.m. and it was recorded before I woke up the next morning. Awesome service! Totally worth the $19 service fee.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
