>Krakii's deed-related questions
Before repossessions were turned off for years, the procedure for acquiring a deed was to go to the local permit office, located in the permanent structure in each town's player shop area (same place you buy shop decor) and ask the NPC there about the kind of deed you wanted (one/two/three room shop). If there were any empty slots in that area, the NPC would allow you to purchase a deed. You'd pay for your deed, take your deed to a room in that town's player shop area, find a room with space for a shop, and use the deed to claim the space. Then you'd have a simple shop in that room.
For these raffles, you are not expected to have a deed already, as they are not acquirable through the shop system at this time -- that's part of the point of his fixing the system. Given how the system used to work, one could assume that what's being raffled off is a deed for the given town where the raffle is held. I have no doubts that Retser will make sure the winners receive clear instructions on how to acquire their shop should they win.
I've clarified that line in the Player Run Shop article on the wiki, under the original system proceedure:
"A shop deed (one room for standard, up to three rooms for premium) must be purchased from the NPC at the local permit office, found in the permanent structure that sells shop decor within the player shop area of each town."

Walsor Gryhm says, "Hmm, a most impressive weapon of note. I'll give you 16 silver coins for it."
You think to yourself, "This deal is getting worse all the time."
