Understand what a deed really is.
Helping you make better decisions
Most people have heard about deeds and know that they are connected to property in some way, but a lot of people don’t really understand what a deed is. So, what exactly is a deed? A deed is a written, legal instrument that conveys an estate or interest in real property when it is executed and delivered. But what does that mean? Once a deed is signed and delivered, a transfer of property occurs. It is usually best to have that deed recorded also (although a lawyer can advise when it may not be best to do so).
There are several types of deeds. The primary types of Arizona deeds include Warranty Deed, Special Warranty Deed, Quitclaim Deed, Deed of Trust, and Beneficiary Deed.
