Property Deed

A property deed is a legal document that formally transfers ownership of real estate from one party to another. It includes important details such as the names of the buyer and seller, a description of the property, and any conditions or restrictions related to the sale. Once signed and recorded with the appropriate government office, the deed serves as proof of ownership. There are different types of deeds, such as warranty deeds and quitclaim deeds, each offering varying levels of protection and guarantees regarding the property’s title.
