Questions answered? Let's get started!

Two record owners convey together on this deed. The form is Vermont's special warranty deed built for joint grantors: two grantor sections, two signature lines, and a full notary acknowledgment certificate for each signer, so a pair of co-owners passes their combined interest in one recorded instrument. The covenants run from both grantors, bind them jointly and severally, and stop at the edge of their own time in title.

Two grantors, one conveyance

The deed recites exactly two grantors, each an individual conveying in a personal capacity, and a single grantee section carrying the new owners' names and the vesting words they take under. Both grantors sign, and because co-owners often acknowledge at different times or in different places, the form carries a separate certificate for each signature, each set out in the statutory short form of Section 5368 of Title 26, with lines for the notary's printed name and commission number. Familiar pairs present this pattern in Vermont land records: siblings conveying property they inherited as tenants in common, a married couple selling a home held as tenants by the entirety, and two co-investors ending a joint venture. When the grantors are married to each other, their two signatures also supply the spousal joinder that 27 V.S.A. Sections 141 and 349 attach to homestead and entireties property. For the rarer case, a grantor whose spouse is not the other grantor and whose homestead is being conveyed, the deed adds a labeled joining spouse block with its own certificate. The form is not set up as a deed for one owner, for three or more co-owners, or for an entity or fiduciary seller; those configurations recite different parties than this deed carries.

Covenants from both grantors that stop with their ownership

Vermont writes warranty scope onto the face of a deed; no general statute implies covenants from an operative word alone. This deed states that the grantors are lawfully seized, hold good right and title to convey, and pass the property free from encumbrances they made or suffered except as the deed lists, then confines the duty to warrant and defend to claims arising by, through, or under the grantors or either of them. Vermont practice also labels the same instrument a limited warranty deed. The two-grantor version adds one point of reach: because both owners join in a single set of covenants, a claim traceable to either co-owner's period of ownership falls inside the promise, while anything older than the chain they share stays outside it.

One deed, one town clerk, one tax return

Vermont land records live with municipal clerks rather than county recorders, so the signed deed is presented for recording in the town or city where the property sits, at the statewide fee of fifteen dollars per page. Each grantor's acknowledgment before a notary public is the execution formality 27 V.S.A. Section 341(a) sets for deeds, and recording is what extends the conveyance's effect beyond the grantors and their heirs under Section 342. A completed Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, with its Act 250 certificate, accompanies the deed at the counter; 32 V.S.A. Section 9608 directs clerks to accept no transfer deed without it. The guide in this package covers the return, the current rates and the clean water surcharge, the statutory exemptions, and every numbered section of the deed, along with the co-ownership vesting forms available to the grantees under 27 V.S.A. Section 2.

The download delivers three pieces: the special warranty deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example presenting a two-grantor Chittenden County transfer of inherited property, and a plain language guide covering completion, signing, and municipal recording. These materials describe Vermont law generally and are not legal advice; questions about a particular title or transfer belong with a Vermont attorney.

This is an excellent resource. I was surprised because the price is so low I thought the products might be inferior. Not only were were the requested documents high quality, additional unrequested documents were added to my order that I didn't realize I would need until I read them. I especially appreciate that all the documents were specific to my county. I highly recommend using deeds.com.

Bottom line - it was certainly worth the $21 (+-?) I paid for the form and instructions, etc. Admittedly the form is a little inflexible in terms of editing for readability but I understand that offering greater flexibility would likely make theft more likely. So I'm happy with what I got. One suggestion - add more info about what's required in the "Source of Title" section.

After my county rejected a deed from another company, I researched better and purchased my Lady Bird Deed from Deeds.com. Very simple, received everything immediately. Printed out sample and guide sheets and filled out my deed. Very thorough and easy to understand. All the additional forms were awesome. And the best part is, my county recorded my deed this morning! WooHoo! Very happy customer! Thank you!

All I needed to do was changed from my previously married name to my now maiden name and a Quit Claim Deed was all I needed. I loved that they offered a sample along with very detailed directions. Great site! Thank you!

Used a form from this service. Best part about these forms is that they don't let you get in trouble by removing or changing things that should not be changed. It's easy to look at something and think why is this margin so big, why is this field so small and want to change it only to find out it is incredibly important. That's why they are the deed document pros.

Reply from Staff

Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear you found our forms reliable and well-structured. It’s true—what might look like an odd margin or a small field is often there for a very specific legal or recording reason. We’ve seen how small changes can lead to big headaches, which is why we design our documents to be both user-friendly and compliant with strict recording standards. We really appreciate you recognizing the care that goes into each one. Thanks again for choosing us!
