Terms Used In Maryland Code, REAL PROPERTY 2-107

  • Deed: The legal instrument used to transfer title in real property from one person to another.
  • Grantor: The person who establishes a trust and places property into it.
A covenant by the grantor in a deed “that he is seized of the land hereby granted” has the same effect as if the grantor had covenanted that the grantor, at the time of the execution and delivery of the deed, is and stands lawfully seized of the land.
