Property Deeds

Property deeds are legal documents that prove ownership of a piece of real estate. They contain details about the property, such as its size, location, and any rights attached to it. When a property is bought or sold, a new deed is created to transfer ownership from the seller (grantor) to the buyer (grantee). The deed must be signed, often notarized, and recorded in government offices to ensure public recognition of the ownership change. This process protects both the buyer's and seller's rights and helps prevent disputes over property ownership in the future.
