OKLAHOMA WARRANTY DEED.
Recording and return information: a house recording-stamp band, plus county, buyer/grantee address, return-to / prepared-by, grantor marital-status, and 60 O.S. § 121(C) affidavit-or-exemption fields. Record with the county clerk. Oklahoma has 77 counties.
Party information: grantor and buyer/grantee names, mailing addresses, marital status, and vesting. Homestead conveyance generally requires both spouses to join (16 O.S. § 4). Oklahoma is not a community-property state; tenancy by the entirety is a married-spouse vesting choice.
Consideration: a replaceable consideration prompt (nominal $10 recital or the actual consideration). Documentary stamp tax remains in force; this packet does not include a stamp blank or AG affidavit blank.
Page 2 continues: “grant, bargain, sell and convey … and warrant the title” and the five § 19 covenants, not six Washington covenants. Ordinary acknowledged deeds need no witnesses.
About this Oklahoma form
An Oklahoma warranty deed uses the words "grant, bargain, sell and convey … and warrant the title" (16 O.S. §§ 19 and 40). Those words import five statutory covenants: seisin, good right to convey, against encumbrances, warranty, and quiet enjoyment. Oklahoma does not import a six-covenant inventory or a separate further-assurances covenant. 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 Oklahoma include:
An Oklahoma warranty deed uses "grant, bargain, sell and convey … and warrant the title" and imports the five covenants of 16 O.S. § 19. An Oklahoma quitclaim uses "quitclaim, grant, bargain, sell and convey" and carries no warranty. Warranty deeds are for standard sales. Quitclaim deeds are usually for transfers between trusted parties who accept the no-warranty risk.

A recorded warranty deed is evidence that the grantor conveyed the property to you with the five statutory covenants. It is not a title-insurance policy and does not by itself prove the grantor had good title.
Yes, it is highly recommended. The deed gives you a contract claim against the grantor on the five statutory covenants. Title insurance is separate financial backing and defense; it is not the same as those covenants.
Record with the county clerk of the county where the land lies. Present any required documentary stamps and, unless a face exemption applies, the current 60 O.S. § 121(C) Attorney General land-ownership affidavit. This packet does not include those blanks.
Oklahoma documentary stamp tax remains in force under 68 O.S. § 3201. It was renumbered, not abolished. Confirm the current rate, any § 3202 exemption, and who tenders the stamps with the county clerk. This packet does not include a stamp blank.
16 O.S. § 19 imports five covenants: seisin, good right to convey, against encumbrances, warranty, and quiet enjoyment. It does not import six covenants or a separate further-assurances covenant.
Yes. A homestead conveyance generally requires both spouses to sign or the deed is not valid (16 O.S. § 4). Oklahoma is not a community-property state. If title is held as tenants by the entirety, both spouses must sign as grantors.
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.
