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.
(Michigan SWD Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)
Important: Your property must be located in Benzie County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.
This Special Warranty Deed meets all recording requirements specific to Benzie County.

Bought a quit claim deed form. Came with great instructions that were easy to follow and allowed me to do it over a couple of times until I got it right. Was also cheaper than most other options I found online.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great resource and everything went smoothly except email was performed through autofill prompted by the system but the autofill added a letter that gave wrong email. I can still sign in with wrong email since the system recognizes it as mine even though it is wrong. May be my fault and not the system since I did not catch the discrepancy in time. I would suggest a field that allows a correction to any misinformation prior to signing out from the initial sign on. Still think it is a great resource if all documents are processed and accepted by the pwers to be. Thanks.
Thank you!

The release of mortgage form was OK, and accepted at the recorder's office, but there were some problems. Many of the fields to type in were too small to accept the data, and I could not find a way to change the field size or use a smaller font. Otherwise I was satisfied.
Your feedback is a crucial part of our dedication to ongoing improvement. Thank you for your insightful comments.

The Deed of trust form was fine but the promissory note was less user friendly since I needed to change a few things that were fixed in the template. I ended up using white-out after I got no response when I emailed the help site that was provided in one of your emails, so it looks a little odd but should be usable
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
