Transfer of Title

Which type of deed offers the grantee the greatest protection by warranting the title against all defects, even those arising before the grantor owned the property?

  • a.Quitclaim deed
  • b.Special warranty deed
  • c.General warranty deed
  • d.Bargain and sale deed

A general warranty deed contains the full set of covenants, warranting the title against defects arising at any time in the property's history, and is the strongest deed for the grantee. A special warranty deed covers only the grantor's period of ownership, and a quitclaim conveys only whatever interest the grantor may have, with no warranties.
