Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Missouri warranty deed prepared for a single grantor carries one signature line, one acknowledgment certificate, and the marital status statement Missouri law requires of every natural person who signs a conveyance. This fillable form prepares that deed: one owner conveying Missouri real property with full warranty covenants under Chapter 442 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri.
The words that carry the Missouri warranty
Missouri attaches its statutory covenants to an exact phrase. Under Section 442.420, a deed that conveys with the words grant, bargain and sell implies that the grantor holds an indefeasible estate in fee simple, that the property is free of encumbrances done or suffered by the grantor or the grantor's chain of title, and that the grantor will give further assurances of title. Those implied covenants stop at the grantor's own chain, so this deed adds the rest in express words: a covenant of seizin and good right to convey, a covenant against encumbrances except the matters the deed lists, and a general covenant to warrant and defend the title against the lawful claims of all persons whomsoever. Missouri case law reads near misses strictly; a deed that says bargain, sell and convey imports no statutory covenants at all, which is why this form carries the statutory phrase verbatim. The combination, statutory words plus an express general warranty, is what Missouri practice means by a general warranty deed, and searches for a Missouri general warranty deed form describe this instrument.
One grantor, one signature, a required marital status line
The form recites exactly one grantor conveying in that grantor's own right, so it carries a single signature line and a single notary certificate. Section 442.130 requires every conveyance to state whether a natural person executing it is married or unmarried, and Missouri's recording chapter makes the grantor's marital status first-page content, so the grantor section carries a dedicated marital status line on page one. A sole owner conveying to a buyer, a relative passing land within the family, and an unmarried owner reorganizing holdings present the single-grantor pattern this deed recites. Missouri homestead law draws the boundary of that pattern: under Section 513.475, a separate conveyance of a qualifying homestead by one spouse is null and void, while a joint conveyance by both spouses stands, so a married grantor's homestead conveyance follows a two-signature pattern that this form does not recite.
From the notary to the recorder of deeds
The grantor signs before a notary, and the certificate on the form tracks Missouri's statutory short form under Section 442.210: on the stated date the grantor personally appeared, known to the notary to be the person described in and who executed the instrument, and acknowledged executing it as a free act and deed. Missouri also recognizes remote online notarization under Chapter 486. The completed deed goes to the recorder of deeds of the county where the land lies; from the moment of filing the record imparts notice to all persons, and an unrecorded deed is valid only between the parties and those with actual notice. The form is built to Missouri's document standards: letter size pages, a three inch band at the top of the first page reserved for the recorder, three quarter inch margins elsewhere, type above the statutory minimum, and the grantee mailing address the recorder looks for before accepting a deed. Missouri collects no statewide transfer tax on deeds. A few jurisdictions, including the City of St. Louis, St. Louis County, and St. Charles County, collect a certificate of value with the deed for assessment purposes; that certificate is a county form prepared separately and not included in this package.
