§ 27232 Grantor Grantee Record Index

• •The recorder must keep a list of all property sales or transfers.
• •This list is called 'Grantors' and has three parts: who sold the property, who bought it, and where it's written down.
• •This helps people find out who owns what property.

You want to buy a house and need to know who the current owner is.

You can look at the 'Grantors' list to see who sold the house last and who bought it. This helps you know who to talk to about buying the house.
