Grantor and grantee are of same name
In reviewing recent property "sales" in my area, I noticed that in some cases the grantor and grantee on the property deeds are the same person. How can this be if the property was actually sold, or is this most likely some kind of trust?

It's probably a "corrective deed". There was some, probably minor, error in the original deed, they wanted to correct that error, so they filed a new deed to fix the problem.
