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 Lake County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Special Warranty Deed meets all recording requirements specific to Lake County.

I filled out the Xfer on Death Deed and turned it in to the County Recorder - everything went well. I did NOT like the Huge Print over like a stamp of "DEEDS.COM" on some of the material - it just made it hard to read.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great forms - I got several property deeds and really appreciated that they came with the required state forms (for NY). the sample completed form is also really helpful. Attorney wanted hundreds- with this form it is the same amount of work but I can file myself for the cost of lunch!!
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Quick and easy! I had previously prepared a Lady Bird deed, submitted it through Deeds.com and it was accepted/recorded by my county in just a few hours. The Deed.com $21 fee was well worth it as I saved fuel, tolls and parking costs not to mention at least 2-3 hours of my time that it would've taken to get downtown and back home!
Thanks for the feedback John. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Have an amazing day!

I like the basics. The one thing I would recommend changing would be, something that tells me I have actually have submitted my package, or that I can leave at any time without needing to click on a "Submit" button.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Pretty good promissory note...but unable to delete some of the not needed stuff. Fill in blanks are fine but not all the template language is appropriate in my situation
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
