If you're buying or selling a home, you've likely heard the term “deed”—but what exactly does it mean?
A deed is a legal document that transfers ownership of a property from one person to another. It’s one of the most important documents in any real estate transaction because it officially records who holds the title to the property. Without a properly executed deed, ownership cannot legally change hands.
Once a deed is signed, it must be notarized and recorded with the county recorder or relevant government office to make it legally binding and part of the public record.
Why It Matters:
Understanding what a deed is—and what kind you're signing—is critical whether you're buying your first home or adding a property to your portfolio. It ensures you have legal protection and clear ownership of your investment.
