Question

Jeffrey is selling his loft to Caroline. He is using a General Warranty Deed in the transfer of property. Which of the following covenants is not a requirement?

1) Covenant of Seisin
2) Covenant Against Encumbrances
3) Covenant of Exceptions and Reservations
4) Covenant of Further Assurance

Answer 1

The covenant of Exceptions and Reservations is not a requirement in a General Warranty Deed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The covenant of Exceptions and Reservations is not a requirement in a General Warranty Deed.

A General Warranty Deed is a type of deed that guarantees the buyer that the seller has a valid title to the property and will defend the buyer against any claims that arise in the future.

The other covenants mentioned, Seisin, Against Encumbrances, and Further Assurance, are all important requirements in a General Warranty Deed, ensuring that the buyer will receive clear and marketable title to the property.
