Questions answered? Let's get started!
One record owner signs this Vermont warranty deed, acknowledges it on a single notary certificate, and conveys with the full common law title covenants; a second, conditional signature block waits below for the one signer Vermont law sometimes adds, a spouse joining a homestead conveyance under 27 V.S.A. Section 141. The form prepares a general warranty deed for one individual grantor conveying Vermont real property to the grantee or grantees named in it.
Covenants stated in full, because Vermont implies none
Vermont has no statutory warranty deed form and no statute that reads covenants into a deed from a single operative word, so a Vermont warranty deed makes its promises out loud. This form carries the customary covenant chain in express text: the grantor is the sole owner of the property, has good right and title to convey it, the property is free from every encumbrance except as stated in the deed, and the grantor will warrant and defend it against all lawful claims and demands. Those covenants reach the whole history of the title, not just the grantor's period of ownership, which is what separates a warranty deed from the limited and no-covenant instruments Vermont practice also uses. The encumbrances section does real work here: every recorded easement, restriction, or surviving lien listed there sits outside the warranty, so that entry draws the exact boundary of what the grantor stands behind.
One grantor signs, and sometimes a spouse joins
The form recites exactly one grantor: one name in the grantor section, one signature line, one acknowledgment certificate worded to Vermont's statutory short form. A sole owner selling a house, a single person conveying inherited land, and an unmarried owner deeding a parcel to family present the single-grantor pattern this deed recites; deeds from two co-owners, from spouses conveying together, or from a trustee follow different recital and signature patterns and are not what this form is set up as. Vermont adds one conditional signer. Under 27 V.S.A. Section 141, a married owner's conveyance of the homestead is inoperative as to the homestead unless the spouse joins in the execution and acknowledgment, so the deed carries a labeled joinder section with its own signature line and notary certificate; where the grantor is unmarried or the property is outside the homestead rules, that section stays blank. On the receiving side, the grantee entry accepts any form of ownership Vermont recognizes, from a single grantee through tenants in common, joint tenants, spouses as tenants by the entirety, or a trustee, and the guide describes the words 27 V.S.A. Section 2 gives effect to for each.
Recorded with a town clerk, with the tax return alongside
Vermont records deeds town by town, not county by county: the deed goes to the clerk of the town or city where the land lies, and under 27 V.S.A. Section 342 an unrecorded deed holds the property only against the grantor and the grantor's heirs. The deed does not travel alone. A completed Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, accompanies it, and 32 V.S.A. Section 9608 bars the clerk from recording without that return and the required Act 250 certificate. The general transfer tax rate is 1.25 percent of value plus the 0.22 percent clean water surcharge, with a reduced bracket for a principal residence, and the recording fee is fifteen dollars per page statewide. The form reserves space at the top of the first page for the clerk's recording information and keeps every entry inside Vermont's recordable page dimensions.
What arrives in the download

I liked getting the forms but I was charged twice for some reason. I'm not sure what happened with that. Can you reimburse me? Thank you. Lanette
Thank you for your feedback Lanette. In review, it looks like your first payment was declined, second one was approved and processed. What you are seeing is one payment and a hold placed by your financial institution for the declined attempt. We are not sure why they do this but the hold usually falls off after a few day depending on their policy. If you have further questions about this you can contact your financial institution and they will explain. Have a great day.

Thank you!
Shirley S. 3 out of 5 stars
Laborious process to gain access; need to indicate PRIINT when complete and inform that if page is backspaced, entered info disappears, necessitating starting all over again. There is only one “A” provision, when some documents have several more. Space is too limited in some instances to provide what is necessary for recording. Thank you
Your feedback is valuable to us and helps us improve. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

Dennis E. 5 out of 5 stars
Easy to complete form. Examples were very helpful in using correct verbiage for form. Also way less expensive than the $500 an attorney wanted to charge me for doing the very same thing!!!
Thanks Dennis, we appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback.

Afficavit worked kind of pricey
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
Linda H. 5 out of 5 stars
This was so easy to download, open the files and then complete the document on the computer then printing out. I waited to review this until we took it to Courthouse for the Recorder of Deeds and the legal task is now done. An attorney would probably have charge $300. This is a real deal packet!
Thanks for sharing your experience, Linda. It’s great to hear the documents were easy to complete and accepted by the recorder with no issues.

5 stars. Licensed to practice law for 25 years in multiple jurisdictions, the most dreaded part of doing what you already know how to do is researching again to make sure the legislatures have not changed the rules while you were doing something else. 22 bucks for this package is one hell of a deal and a real timesaver. Many thanks.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
