What is better, statutory warranty deed or special warranty deed?

You can sell as a warranty deed but this means you are warranting clean title and the buyer can come back to you, you should only provide a warranty deed if theres a title company/title insurance being purchased.

What is a warranty deed in Maine?

Special warranty deeds are common in commercial transactions and certain residential sales like foreclosures or bank-owned properties. General warranty deeds offer more comprehensive protection by covering the entire history of the propertys title until the time of sale.

What does a statutory warranty deed mean?

A statutory warranty deed is a short-form deed that includes the promises of a long-form general warranty deed. It guarantees the grantor holds and is transferring full and legal title to the property. Using either a statutory or general warranty deed provides the most protection to the buyer of the property.

What is the difference between a warranty deed and a statutory warranty deed?

A statutory warranty deed is different from a warranty deed because it is a shorter form made available through your states statutes and it may not outright list the promise that the title is guaranteed to be clear. Instead, because it is a statutory form, this guarantee is implied and is still legally enforceable.

Does a warranty deed mean you own the property?

No, a warranty deed does not prove ownership. A title search is the best way to prove that a grantor rightfully owns a property. The warranty deed is a legal document that offers the buyer protection. In other words, the property title and warranty deed work in tandem together.
