Who Benefits the Most from Recording a Warranty Deed? The buyer, or grantee, of a property benefits the most from obtaining a warranty deed. Through the recording of a warranty deed, the seller is providing assurances to the buyer should anything unexpected happen.
Disadvantages of Warranty Deeds Title companies will research the chain of deeds, past court judgments, and unpaid taxes before green-lighting the transfer. The grantor also remains on the hook long after the sale. If a forgotten lien surfaces, the buyer can pull the grantor into court for damages and legal fees.
Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship (JTWROS) is a legal arrangement that grants co-owners equal ownership rights to an asset, such as a financial account, while ensuring that upon the death of one owner, their interest immediately transfers to the surviving owners.

Risks And Dangers of Joint Tenancy With Right of Survivorship. There are drawbacks to a JTWROS arrangement, including inflexibility. If one co-owner wishes to sell their share, it may dissolve the arrangement, Shirshikov says. Additionally, creditors of one owner can pursue the property, impacting all co-owners.
