A Georgia general warranty deed conveys property to a buyer with a complete warranty of the title. Through this deed, the seller assures that they have the right to sell the property and that the title is free of defects. If a title issue arises, even if it was not known to the seller, they are legally obligated to defend it on the buyer’s behalf.
