Excepted Encumbrances Clause Samples

The Excepted Encumbrances clause defines which existing liens, easements, restrictions, or other burdens on a property are permitted to remain in place after a transaction, such as a sale or mortgage. In practice, this clause lists specific encumbrances—like utility easements, zoning restrictions, or recorded covenants—that the buyer or lender agrees to accept and that will not be considered breaches of title. Its core function is to clarify which encumbrances are acceptable, thereby allocating risk and preventing disputes over minor or previously disclosed title issues.
