A Virgin Islands Partition Warranty Deed is a legal document that allows for the transfer of ownership rights to property that is subject to a partition action. This type of deed ensures that the property being transferred is free from any encumbrances or defects in title, providing the new owner with protection and assurance. In the United States Virgin Islands, there are primarily two types of Partition Warranty Deeds that are commonly used: 1. Virgin Islands General Partition Warranty Deed: This type of deed is used when there is a voluntary agreement among co-owners to divide the property. It is often used in situations where co-owners no longer wish to jointly own the property and want to sever their interests. The General Partition Warranty Deed ensures that each new owner receives a clear and marketable title to their portion of the property. 2. Virgin Islands Court-Ordered Partition Warranty Deed: This type of deed is used when there is a dispute among co-owners and a court is involved in the partition process. In cases where co-owners cannot come to an agreement on the division of the property, a court may order a partition sale. The Court-Ordered Partition Warranty Deed ensures that the property is transferred to new owners with a clear and marketable title, as determined by the court. Both types of Virgin Islands Partition Warranty Deeds provide legal protection to the new owners by warranting that the property is free from any encumbrances or defects in title, up to the date of the deed. This means that the new owners can have confidence that they are acquiring a property with a clean title and will not be held responsible for any issues that may arise from previous ownership.
