In property transactions, trustor is to trustee as what is to grantee?

  1. Grantor

  2. Beneficiary

  3. Lender

  4. Agent

The correct answer is: Grantor

Trustor and trustee are two parties involved in property transactions where the trustor grants the trustee the power to manage the property. In a similar way, grantor is the party who grants or transfers property to the grantee. Beneficiary refers to the party who receives the benefit from the property, but does not have a direct role in the transaction. Lender is the party who provides the financial loan for the property, but does not have a direct role in the transfer of the property. Agent is a broad term and can refer to anyone acting on behalf of another party, but it does not specifically relate to property transactions. Therefore, A Grantor is the correct answer.
