What is a general warranty deed?

Covenants of Seller (Grantor)

The seller (the grantor) gives the buyer (the grantee) the following covenants:

• that the grantor has good and marketable title to the property,
• that the grantor has the right and power to transfer the title to the grantee, and
• that the grantor will forever defend the grantee's right to possession of the property.

Transfer title to a Utah real estate property from a seller to a trustee with this Utah Deed of Trust.

• A Deed of Trust is often used instead of a mortgage in the purchase of real estate, except for agricultural land.
• Under the Deed of Trust, title is conveyed by the seller to a trustee instead of to the purchaser.
• The trustee holds the title as security to ensure the purchaser's performance of its obligations (including payment of the purchase price, maintenance and upkeep of the property, payment of taxes, etc).
• If the borrower defaults in payment, the balance becomes due and payable and the trustee may sell the property.
• The Deed of Trust contains uniform covenants regarding payments, taxes and insurance, care and maintenance of the property, protection of the lender's security, and other standard clauses.
• The borrower requests copies of any notices of default and sale be sent to the property address, as the borrower's residence address.
• Available in MS Word format and fully editable to meet your needs.
• Intended to be used only in the State of Utah.
