Deed Of Grant

Contrary to normal expectations, the Deed DOES NOT have to be recorded to be effective or to show delivery, and because of that, the Deed DOES NOT have to be signed in front of a Notary Public. However, if you plan to record it, then it does have to be notarized as that is a County Recorder requirement.

A grant deed is the instrument used to transfer title to an interest in real property from one owner to someone else.A deed of trust is the security instrument given to a lender to secure a loan or other obligation. Bare naked title is deeded to the trustee, who holds the power of sale or the power to re-convey.

The seller or the seller's broker will hire an attorney to prepare the real estate deed to ensure that all of the requirements in the creation of a valid deed are met before the seller conveys title to the property. All real estate deeds must be in writing.
