In California, searching for grant deed information is done at the county recorder's office. Real estate records are located in local government offices that record real estate transactions, such as sales, refinances and other transfers.. Check the government office website, if available, for information regarding a search of the grantor-grantee index for real estate records. In some cases, such as in San Francisco and San Diego counties, this information is available online.
Insert the purchase price, if the property is being sold. This is not necessary if the property is being gifted to a trust beneficiary. Sign the deed in the presence of a notary public, and have the notary public add his signature and seal. The grantee does not need to sign the deed. File the deed with the county land recorder. The land recorder will provide the grantee with a copy of the deed. Once you transfer property to an irrevocable living trust, it legally belongs to the trust beneficiaries, not you.
