Illinois Deed Forms

An Illinois deed is a legal instrument that conveys the ownership rights of a property from its current owner (the “grantor”) to another party (the “grantee”). Real estate ownership is officially recorded as a title with the county recorder’s office and transferred via a deed. In most cases, the grantor will warrant that there are no encumbrances on the property and promise to defend the grantee against any such claims.
