In a special warranty deed, conveying a specific lot but subject to the grantee agreeing to be bound by a Homeowner's Assoc. if a totally wrong HOA in another county is described, is this a valid deed or could it be recinded by the buyer ?

Typos on Deeds are "usually" not grounds for rescinding a transaction - the Deed is simply taken in and corrected.

When I bought my house they listed the wrong township and county - have no idea how THAT would get through 3 Attorneys - and it was simply corrected.

If the error on the Deed is significant, then there are grounds to set it aside; however, I believe in both parties had an understanding and the paperwork is wrong, it is simply corrected.
