Indiana's transfer on death deeds are a useful way to convey ownership rights to property without the need for probate. The rules for claiming the property are defined in IC 32-17-14-26(b)(20). Primarily, the statute explains that the beneficiary must complete a transfer on death beneficiary affidavit containing specific details of the deed, present that affidavit to the local auditor to verify any transfer taxes, and then submit it to the county recorder who will enter it, and therefore the finalized conveyance, into the public record.
Beneficiaries listed on Indiana transfer on death deeds may use this form, which meets the statutory requirements, to claim ownership of the real property described in the deed.
(Indiana TOD Deed Beneficiary Affidavit Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

The service provided by the staff at Deeds.com is consistently excellent with prompt replies and smooth recording transactions. I am grateful to have their service available as driving to downtown Phoenix to record documents is always a daunting prospect. Their assistance in recording our firm's documents has been 100% accurate and a pleasure.
Thank you for your positive words! We’re thrilled to hear about your experience.

Very satisfied. Download was easy, completing the form was easy, got our signatures notarized and submitted it to the register of deeds.
The only item was that the register of deeds did not immediately recognize the TOD deed form as the usual form they receive. After carefully reviewing all the information and wording on the deed she accepted it.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
