Property Law
Grantee
Standard Definition
The person receiving title to real property in a deed transaction (typically the buyer).
Detailed Examination Analysis
In a deed, the grantee is the recipient of the property title. A valid deed must clearly identify the grantee, but they do not need to sign the document. The grantee must accept delivery of the deed for the transfer of title to be complete.
Real-World Examination Scenario
"A deed is prepared for a transaction, naming the buyer as the grantee. Once the deed is delivered to the buyer, title is transferred."
