North Dakota deeds are legal documents used to transfer real estate. Among the contents of a deed are the names of the grantor (who is selling the property) and the grantee (who is buying it), the amount of the consideration paid for the property, and its legal description. Typically, deeds are filed with the county recorder’s office in the county in which the property is situated. Depending on the situation, a title warranty may or may not be included with the deed. A title search should be performed before buying a property to ensure that the title is free from liens.
