Grant

A grant refers to the legal transfer of ownership of property from one party (the grantor) to another (the grantee). This transfer is typically executed through a document known as a grant deed or warranty deed, which ensures that the grantor has clear title to the property and the legal right to transfer it. The deed also often includes guarantees that the property is free from any undisclosed encumbrances or claims, providing protection to the grantee. The term “grant” can be used broadly to refer to the act of conveying property rights in various forms, including full ownership or specific rights, such as an easement.
