Clarification. A real estate transaction conveys ownership from a grantor, or seller, to a grantee, or buyer. Transactions involving trust deeds involve three parties: the lender, the borrower and a trustee. Title is held in a trust with the lender as beneficiary.

As grantor, the borrower gives the grantee that right by way of the recorded deed.
