what is the definition of a warranted deed for a home?
85944
A warranty deed is one in which the seller, when transferring the title to you, warrants that he owns the property free and clear of all liens. A warranty deed is used in most sales of property. The warranty deed says that the grantor is the rightful owner and has the right to transfer the title; that there are no outstanding claims on the property from lenders using it as collateral, or from other creditors, and that the property can't be claimed by someone with a better claim to the title. If any of those claims are wrong, the buyer is entitled to compensation. A title insurance policy backs up the claims of the warranty deed, protecting the lender or buyer from disputes about ownership or liens.

You probably mean "right of abode" (note the B and the D). \nIt means the right to a place to stay, a home.

If you create a Trust by allowing the Trustee(s) to handle affairs about the land, there could be three valid reasons.\nFirstly, the land belongs to an association and not any group of individuals. So trustees are made to handle the monetary aspects. Secondly, if the owner is a foreigner and cannot buy the property under his own name, he can appoint a Trustee to take care. Thirdly, Trust Deeds can be a temporary insurance for lender/borrower transactions.

A quitclaim deed conveys whatever interest you hold in a piece of property, with no warranties on the deed. In contrast, general warranty deeds provide guarantees: that you own the property, that you can convey it, that the title is not encumbered (no liens, undisclosed easements, zoning defects, or encroachments), and that you are willing to take necessary steps to ensure the above.\n\nSo, the form of the deed is not the real question. Quitclaim deeds are just easier than general warranty deeds, because you are making no guarantees regarding what you own.\n\nYour question seems to be whether it is necessary for you to give up your property rights in the house so your ex-husband can take out a mortgage. Under some state laws, mortgages taken out by one co-owner can encumber an entire property, including your interest, and can result in the property being foreclosed by the mortgage holder if not paid.\n\nUnder other state laws that follow a lien theory, your ex can encumber his part ownership, but not yours. If the mortgage holder forecloses, they would become part owners along with you, if your state followed those rules. The mortgage company may then attempt to force sale of the property, to get their investment back, but that would be a separate legal action.\n\nWhenever your legal rights are at issue, you should consult with a licensed attorney. Property law, especially the intersection of co-tenancy, divorce settlements and mortgages, can be very complex. Don't take the word of some random person on the internet. Especially where your house is on the line.

Quick answer is to purchase one from a professional title examiner.\n\nIf you insist on doing it yourself,  go to wherever deeds are recorded in your locality:  the courthouse or the county building.  Then you search the name of the present owner to find what mortgages, liens he has.  You find the name of the person that granted him the house, and search that name, and so on and so forth until you get to the original owner.  Most states have a marketable title act that provides that any deed 20 years old that has not been challenged can no longer be challeged - so you dont have to search any further back than that.  Pre-computers - they used to write every transaction down in a huge book alpabetically.  So you would turn to "J" for Johnson for each year and look for any transactions.  That is why things are usually indexed by book and page.

You can try to do it yourself by going to the office of the county clerk or county register (where the deeds are recorded) and following the deeds back for 20-30 years, but this will only show the record owners of the property.  It will not show if there were any mortgages that were not paid off, it will not show if there are any judgments against owners of the property (which act as liens against the property), it will not show if all taxes, added assessments, water and sewer fees have been paid and it will not show you all of the easements or other restrictions which may affect the property.\n\nYour best bet is to spend $500-1,000 and get a title insurance policy.  The title company will search anything and everything that may affect the quality of the title and they will issue an insurance policy protecting you from claims by anyone else.  Also, if you ever plan on financing this property the lender will require a title insurance policy anyway.

Foreclosure is the legal proceeding in which a bank or other secured creditor sells or repossesses a parcel of real property (immovable property) due to the owner's failure to comply with an agreement between the lender and borrower called a "mortgage" or "deed of trust". Commonly, the violation of the mortgage is a default in payment of a promissory note, secured by a lien on the property. When the process is complete, it is typically said that "the lender has foreclosed its mortgage or lien."

Two issues. One is what the deeds say. The other is a concept called adverse possession.\n\nAdverse possession says that if you claim land for a long period of time (10-20 years), and actually use, then you get to keep it. It's more complicated than that in practice, but that's the idea.\n\nThe issue will get decided by a court. If you care about the seven feet, then you should consult with an attorney. She'll probably recommend filing what is called a "Quiet Title" action. That asks the court to settle any issues regarding property ownership.

You can protect your home as long as your wife's name is not on any of your business documents (co-owner, etc.) Another way to protect your home is to homestead it. What this means is your home can not be considered in any judgments regarding your estate as long as a relative (blood or by marriage to an immediate family member) is residing there. Even if the homestead is sold, there is a six month period where judgment liens can not be attached to the revenue received from that sale. The only caveat to this is that the property can not be used for profit (i.e farming, rented out etc.) \n\nThis is a great way to ensure that your children and children's children have a home to come home to no matter what (well as long as the notes are kept current lol.)

As a sweetner most new home builders provide a warranty....but remember the test in the law....for those with out warranty--is that any REASONABLE person should be able to expect..the home sold to be for its intended purposes--even if years later..material defects are discovered;contact you ATTorney General...if in doubt ,,or FRAUD is suspected!

you need to hire an attorney who can draft a new deed.\n\nThe cost should not be any more than a couple hundred dollars plus filing fees because the new deed has to be recorded in the county clerk's office.

A mortgage involves a note and  a (trust) deed. Unless you expressly deeded an interest to your home to your ex-husband, you are the still the sole owner and he is obligated on the mortgage note (Sucks to be him if you default). \n\nThe disposition of the house and the mortgage (and debt) should have been explicitly dealt with in your divorce. If you had a divorce lawyer, you should contact the lawyer to determine if your EX has any legal rights to the home.\n\nMortgage companies and banks do not tend to be careless where a legal owner and spouse sign a note and trust deed. You may be obligated by the note. \n\nThe mortgage, however, would not entitle your EX to any interest in your home.

Check the value of the house by getting an appraisal or check various comps in the area.  Then, agree on a price and record a Grant Deed at your county recorder's office.

If they saw evidence of a crime being committed in your home when they came the first time it can be considered "probable cause".  \n\nIf they only suspected something they would have had to get a warrant which they could theoretically do in 5 minutes.
