About this Wyoming form
A Wyoming warranty deed uses the words "conveys and warrants" (Wyo. Stat. § 34-2-102). Those words carry the covenants of Wyo. Stat. § 34-2-103: that at delivery the grantor was lawfully seized of an indefeasible estate in fee simple and had good right and power to convey; that the premises were then free from all incumbrances; and that the grantor warrants quiet and peaceful possession and will defend the title against all persons who may lawfully claim the same. Wyo. Stat. § 34-1-135 provides that no other covenant is implied. A title search and title insurance remain the buyer's practical protection.
Warranty deeds are the standard instrument for traditional real estate sales. Common uses in Wyoming include:
A warranty deed provides the grantee with a legal guarantee regarding the title and holds the grantor liable for title issues. A quitclaim deed, however, offers no such warranties; it simply transfers whatever interest the grantor has at that moment. Warranty deeds are for standard sales, while quitclaim deeds are usually for transfers between trusted parties or family members.

Yes, a recorded warranty deed is the standard legal proof of ownership. It shows that the property was transferred to you with guarantees of title.
Yes, it is highly recommended. While the deed gives you the right to sue the grantor for title defects, title insurance ensures you have financial backing and legal defense without having to track down the grantor.
Deeds are recorded at the local County Clerk for the jurisdiction where the property is located.
Wyoming has no statewide real-estate transfer tax. The County Clerk charges a recording fee, and every covered transfer must include a sworn Statement of Consideration (Wyo. Stat. § 34-1-142). The official form is included in this packet.
While possible, it is not recommended for standard sales, especially in states with strict closing rules. Title companies or attorneys usually prepare these deeds to ensure accuracy and title insurance eligibility.
The packet includes the blank Wyoming deed in editable Word format, a completion and recording checklist, and the official State Board of Equalization Statement of Consideration (with a current-law cover note). Record the deed, Exhibit A, and the completed official statement with the County Clerk. Do not record the checklist or the cover note in place of the official form.
A warranty deed includes the grantor's warranty covenants — generally a promise that the grantor owns the property and will defend the title against claims, subject to any exceptions stated in the deed. It offers the grantee broader title protection than a quitclaim deed.
Warranty deeds are commonly used in arm's-length sales and other transfers where the grantee wants full title warranties from the grantor. Lenders and title insurers generally expect them for ordinary purchases.
The packet includes the blank state-specific deed in editable Word format plus a separate completion instructions and checklist document. A completed sample PDF may be offered as an optional add-on.
Recording offices review formatting, execution requirements such as notarization, and any required supplemental forms or fees, which vary by county. The included instructions cover the general process; confirm your county's current requirements before you record.
