In Utah, ownership of real property, land and water rights, is transferred by a written and signed conveyance typically a deed. Prescribed forms of Quit Claim, special warranty and Warranty deeds are found in the Utah Code, ?see UCA §57-1-12, 12.5 and 13.

Form of quitclaim deed -- Effect. A quitclaim deed when executed as required by law shall have the effect of a conveyance of all right, title, interest, and estate of the grantor in and to the premises therein described and all rights, privileges, and appurtenances thereunto belonging, at the date of the conveyance."

A special warranty deed guarantees two things: The grantor owns, and can sell, the property; and the property incurred no encumbrances during his ownership. A special warranty deed is more limited than the more common general warranty deed, which covers the entire history of the property.

While the seller in a Warranty Deed must defend the title against all other claims and compensate the buyer for any unsettled debts or damages, the seller in a Special Warranty Deed is only responsible for debts and problems accrued or caused during his ownership of the property.

What Are The Dangers Of A Special Warranty Deed? Property debts are tied to the property's title, so buyers agreeing to a special warranty deed assume all responsibility for any liens or claims against the property that may have existed prior to the seller's ownership.
