Usually we kings would just grant so-and-so a city or a castle from the "grant a fief" menu. Well that's totally the wrong way to do it.
If you are like me and want to build a knightly order and garrison a castle before you pass it to one of your lords you are prolly having money problems, I have however found a way to make the lords pay for that instead of me and that is by simply giving a lord a village and trading them for the castle they usually offer up to 60k in the exchange. It only works if the lord has money but most of them do and it's taken a lot of my grumbling out of the mid-game.
Enjoy being financially secure.
