What must a deed include to be valid?

  1. A competent grantor, consideration, and a habendum clause

  2. A legal description and a photograph of the property

  3. Only a signed and witnessed document

  4. A digital signature and online registration

The correct answer is: A competent grantor, consideration, and a habendum clause

A valid deed must include a competent grantor, consideration, and a habendum clause. Option B is incorrect because a photograph is not a necessary requirement for a deed to be valid, while a legal description is crucial for identifying the exact property being transferred. Option C is incorrect because a deed must also include considerations and a habendum clause in addition to being signed and witnessed. Option D is incorrect because while a digital signature may be accepted, it is not a requirement for a deed to be valid, and online registration is not actually a part of the deed itself.
