The buyer can feel confident that nothing has happened recently that might cause problems, while still understanding that a title clearing process and title insurance will be important to the overall transaction.\u00a0 Where is this useful? Special warranty deeds are very useful for professional buyers and sellers. In particular, if an investor buys a property and only owns the property for a short period of time before reselling, using a special warranty deed allows the seller to make a limited warranty covering that time without exposing the seller to the risk of acts by prior owners.\u00a0 For example, an investor looking to update a property and then resell it can warrant to the buyer that there are no construction liens or other problems arising from the updating process without taking the risk that there were already title issues previously. Conclusion If you are buying and selling properties quickly, special warranty deeds can be very helpful. Knowing how they work and what your rights and obligations under those deeds are can help you strategize as to whether this or another deed form is right for you.
