Property OwnershipDeed_typesEASY
Under Michigan law, which type of deed provides the GREATEST protection to the grantee by including covenants that the grantor warrants title against all claims, both those arising during the grantor's ownership and those arising before the grantor acquired title?
Correct Answer
B) General warranty deed
A general warranty deed (also called a full covenant and warranty deed in Michigan) provides the broadest protection to the grantee. The grantor warrants and defends title against all lawful claims and demands, including those arising before the grantor's period of ownership. This is the strongest form of deed protection available under Michigan property law.
