A Bargain and Sale Deed is a legal document that a seller of real estate can use to confirm their right to transfer a property title. Bargain and Sale Deeds are often used in relation to foreclosures and tax sales, and they do not indicate that a property is free of liens or debts.
Like a Quitclaim Deed, a Bargain and Sale Deed can be used when transferring ownership between family members, placing property into a family trust, or purchasing property at a tax or foreclosure sale.
A Bargain and Sale Deed, sometimes called a Deed of Bargain and Sale, can be drafted to provide a guarantee to the buyer that the seller owns the property free and clear of any debt (unless the debt is disclosed in the deed).
