WALK-THROUGH – A final tour of a property by a buyer, prior to settlement, to verify that the terms of a sales contract are being met, and that the property is being conveyed to them in satisfactory condition.

 

WARRANTY DEED – A deed that warrants the title to a property (NOT the condition of the property).  In a GENERAL (or FULL) WARRANTY DEED, the grantor warrants the title all the way back in time.  A SPECIAL WARRANTY DEED only covers the time that the grantor owns the property.

 

WRAPAROUND – A type of loan where the lender assumes the original loan on a property, plus loans additional money to the borrower.  The borrower makes one payment to the lender, and the lender continues to make payments on the original loan.
