What does Limited warranty deed mean?
A limited warranty deed conveys the grantor's interest with covenants limited to title claims arising by, through, or under that grantor, not defects created before the grantor acquired title.

A limited warranty narrows the time and source of covered title claims. A general warranty deed provides broader chain-of-title covenants.
What changes or stays the same in Georgia?
Limited warranty deeds are common in Georgia commercial and institutional transactions. The actual language controls, so do not assume the label supplies broader protection.
A corporate owner warrants against encumbrances it created but does not promise to defend a defect caused by an earlier owner.
Limited does not mean the deed transfers only part of the estate. It describes the scope of title covenants.
