About this Arizona form
An Arizona warranty deed transfers Arizona real estate with the broad warranty language customarily used in many ordinary sale, lender, escrow, and title-insurance transactions. The grantor signs before a notary, and the completed deed is recorded with the County Recorder in the county where the property is located.
A warranty deed gives the buyer broader title protection than a quitclaim deed and is usually the preferred starting point for an ordinary Arizona sale transaction. A quitclaim deed transfers only the grantor's current interest without warranties. A grant deed is valid in Arizona, but warranty deeds are more customary for many residential sale transactions.
Arizona deeds are recorded at the county level, and recorder formatting rules can include margin, cover-page, return-address, and indexing requirements. Remote online notarization is authorized in Arizona, but real-estate transactions may still require title-company, lender, court, or county-recorder acceptance. Confirm supplemental forms, fees, and recording details before relying on a completed deed.

Recorder offices and state agencies may require separate supplemental forms, taxes, fees, or cover sheets, and requirements vary by jurisdiction and transaction. Review the product notes and confirm local recording requirements before relying on any completed deed.

Both spouses generally must sign and acknowledge a deed conveying Arizona community property or a family homestead. A married person may convey sole-and-separate property alone, but community-property, homestead, divorce, and title facts should be checked carefully.
Record the original notarized deed with the County Recorder in the Arizona county where the property is located.
No. A deed transfers title to real property. It does not release the borrower from an existing mortgage or deed of trust, and lender consent may be required for an assumption, refinance, or other loan change.
Arizona has no state, county, city, or municipal real-property transfer tax. County recording fees and the statutory transfer fee can apply, and most transfers require a separate Affidavit of Property Value unless an exemption applies.
No. This is a PublicLegal-authored self-help deed form, not an official Arizona recorder, county, or government form. Confirm county recording requirements and required supplemental forms before recording.
Arizona does not require an official recorder-issued deed form for an ordinary warranty deed, but the deed must be properly drafted, signed, acknowledged, delivered, and recorded with the required legal description and any required supplemental forms.
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.
