Definition
The person or entity receiving property, rights, or interests in a deed or other legal document. In real estate transactions, the grantee is typically the buyer who receives title to the property from the grantor (seller).
Etymology
From 'grant' (from Old French 'granter,' meaning to promise or assure) plus the suffix '-ee' indicating the recipient of an action. This legal terminology developed in medieval English law to clearly identify parties in property transfers.
Kelly Says
Memory trick that lawyers love: grantEE receives, grantOR gives—just like employEE works for employER! But here's the twist: in some documents, the same person can be both grantor and grantee in different transactions, especially in complex real estate deals involving multiple properties or partnerships.
