Campbell County Warranty Deed (Two Grantors) Form

Two record owners, one conveyance. This Tennessee general warranty deed is configured for two grantors: two natural persons who hold title together and join in a single deed, with two signature lines and a separate acknowledgment certificate for each of them. The form conveys with the full warranty of title recognized by Tennessee Code Annotated Section 66-5-103(1)(A), and it collects the sworn consideration statement and the intake content a county register reviews when a conveyance arrives for record.

Two grantors, two signatures, two certificates

The grantor section carries a block for each of the two owners and a line recording their marital status, because the meaning of two-owner title in Tennessee turns on whether the owners are married to each other. Both grantors sign, and each signature receives its own notarial certificate. Tennessee law does not require a separate certificate for each signer; the paired certificates are part of this form's design, so the two grantors may acknowledge on different dates, before different notaries, or in different states, a common circumstance when co-owners no longer live in the same place. The deed also joins the grantors in the operative words: together they convey the property in fee simple and warrant the title against the whole chain of ownership, not merely against claims arising while they held it.

Married grantors, homestead, and the entireties estate

A conveyance to a married couple ordinarily vests Tennessee real property as a tenancy by the entirety, a marital estate with survivorship that neither spouse can sever alone, as the Tennessee Supreme Court reaffirmed in Bryant v. Bryant, 522 S.W.3d 392 (Tenn. 2017). Property held that way leaves the couple only through a deed in which both spouses join, and this two-grantor configuration is the instrument that accomplishes it. Tennessee homestead law points the same direction: under Tennessee Code Annotated Section 26-2-301, where a marital relationship exists, the homestead exemption is not alienated without the joint consent of the spouses, and a deed duly executed by both of them conveys the property free of that exemption. A husband and wife selling the family residence therefore present the exact pattern this deed recites, with the joint consent visible on its face.

Co-owners who are not married to each other

The same two-grantor architecture serves unmarried co-owners. Tennessee's default for multiple owners is tenancy in common under Tennessee Code Annotated Section 66-1-107, each owner holding an undivided share that passes through that owner's estate, and survivorship arises only where a recorded instrument created it expressly. Two siblings who inherited undivided halves of a family parcel, former partners disposing of a jointly purchased house, and co-investors closing out a rental property all appear in the record as two owners whose entire title moves only when both join in one warranty deed. The deed's derivation of title section traces how the pair came to own the property, reciting the prior deed, will, or inheritance with its recording reference as Tennessee Code Annotated Section 66-24-110 requires.

Arriving at the register's counter complete

Tennessee front-loads its recording review onto the face of the instrument, and this general warranty deed carries a labeled space for each item the register looks for: the assessor's parcel number, the names and addresses of the new owner and of the party who takes the tax bills, the preparer statement, the source of the legal description, and the street address of improved property. Below the signature blocks sits the sworn statement of consideration or value that supports the state transfer tax, completed by the grantee or the grantee's agent and taken by the register or a notary. With the oath in place, the register computes the tax, collects it with the statutory page fees, and indexes the deed, and the recorded original returns to the address given in the return block.
