BThe grantor has not previously conveyed the property to another and has not encumbered it other than as disclosed✓ Correct
CThe property is free of all defects including those predating the grantor's ownership

A grant deed implies two warranties: the grantor has not previously conveyed the property to anyone else, and the property is free of encumbrances made by the grantor (other than those disclosed). It provides less protection than a general warranty deed.
