The property is in Harris County Houston Texas. The property was sold from father to daughter. She paid him $15,000 for 2 properties. They used a warranty deed stating that he was selling her the 2 properties. How can she get a deed showing that she is the new owner. She did register the warranty deed with the county court.

It appears as if your father did not give you all the necessary paper work you needed to compete the sale of the properties.
You can do one of two things to correct this situation.
#1 Go before a notary, sign a quit claim deed for each property, then take the notarized deeds to the county recorder's office to be recorded. This is legal and cost less.
#2. Call a title company from your local telephone book, set up an appointment, go into their office and sign two quit claim deeds in front of their notary, who after the signing will insure that the deeds are recorded at the county recorder's office. This is the best way and could prevent any possible legal problem in the future.
I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.

What needs to be done is a Quit Claim Deed where the father will sign off, in front of a Notary, saying that this property was given to his daughter. She then files that paper work with the county and becomes the legal owner of the property. If money exchanged hands, as it appears it did, a portion of that will have to be paid to the county as a tax when filing the document. If you just need a copy of the document you should be able to go back down to the county offices and request a copy of the deed.

A couple of observations.
1. One would expect 1 deed for each property. He was selling two properties to her so there should be a deed for each.
2. If she registered the deed (or deeds) with the county recorders office then they will return the deeds when they have entered them into the public record. Anyone can view the public records so anyone can check with the recorders office to see who is on title.

The title company or atty who prepared it for them will give her the deed if it has been fully paid and a release of lien has been recorded in the court house
