Document background
The Warranty Deed and Deed of Trust is a sophisticated legal instrument used in the Philippines when property needs to be transferred with both title guarantees and trust arrangements. This document type is particularly relevant in situations involving property management for beneficiaries, estate planning, or complex property arrangements where the legal and beneficial ownership needs to be separated. The deed must comply with Philippine property law, including the Civil Code and Property Registration Decree, and typically requires notarization and registration with the Land Registration Authority. It provides comprehensive warranties about the property's title while establishing the trust's terms, trustee powers, and beneficiary rights. This document type is commonly used in family estate planning, corporate property holdings, and charitable trust arrangements.
