A family member is selling my spouse and I some property in Texas. I want to prepare the deed myself, I need to know if this will render the Warranty Deed invalid. Does a title company or a lawyer need be involved in the transaction?

Hi bdkoehl!

Welcome to forums!

You can draft the deed yourself and I don't think it would be considered as invalid. However, it is better to involve a lawyer in this transaction as he would be able to draft the deed in a proper way and help you in filling it out.
