Who needs to sign a deed?

The grantor
The grantee
Both the grantor and grantee
A notary public

The correct answer is: The grantor

A deed is a legal document used to transfer ownership of property from one party to another. The grantor is the person who currently owns the property and is transferring it to another person, known as the grantee. Therefore, it is the grantor's responsibility to sign the deed. The grantee does not need to sign the deed as they are just receiving ownership of the property. A notary public is an official who witnesses and certifies the signing of documents, but they are not required for a deed to be valid. Therefore, the correct answer is A, the grantor.
