You would be the grantor, or person transferring some form of interest in the property to your wife as the grantee.



I hope you know what you are doing. Once you give her the deed, there is no undoing it. The fact there is a deed of trust currently would mean you owe money on the property. Transferring your interest to your wife will not relieve you from owing that debt.
