An easement can give one person the right to use another person's real property for a specific purpose. This non-possessory and non-ownership right is created by the easement deed. In Minnesota, a conveyance of all or any portion of real property includes any benefits and burdens of all easements, conditions, restrictions, or other servitudes validated under 507.47, except as provided in sections 500.20 and 541.023 (507.47).
A plat that has been prepared and recorded in accordance with section 505.01 of the Minnesota Statutes can be used to indicate the dedication of easements for public ways, utility easements, and drainage easements (500.01).

An easement is either appurtenant or in gross. An appurtenant easement benefits the dominant estate and runs with the land, whereas an easement in gross benefits an individual or a legal entity. Further, solar easements and wind easements can also be created under Minnesota law (500.30). These easements are granted in the same manner and with the same effect as a conveyance of an interest in real property.

In order for an instrument affecting Minnesota real estate, such as an easement deed, to be eligible for recordation, it should be executed, acknowledged by the parties executing it, and the acknowledgment should be certified. Easement deeds must contain the original signatures of the parties who execute the instrument and of the notary public or other officer taking acknowledgments (507.24). If the easement deed has been executed out of state, it is entitled to record if it is executed according to Minnesota law or according to the laws of such state.

Every conveyance of real estate that is not recorded is void against a subsequent purchaser in good faith and for a valuable consideration of the same real estate or portion thereof, whose conveyance is first duly recorded. Every instrument in Minnesota that is executed in the form of a conveyance or other form affecting standing timber, stone, ores, minerals, or other similar property, when executed and acknowledged in the manner provided for conveyances, can be recorded in the office of the county recorder where the property is situated. Such record will be notice of the contents thereof and the rights of all parties thereunder as well after as before the severance or separation of such property from the land (507.36).

The State form I chose was valid and accurate. However, I found the ability to enter information was inadequate and difficult. Converted the form to a Word document and was then able to enter the information I needed to.

Really fast turn around time, and was provided exactly what I was looking for this time. This is my first experience with this site. It would have been cool to also get a document depicting/describing a property line, but like I said before, exactly what I was looking for this time.

Thank you so much for your feedback Altaray, we really appreciate it.

Great to have a downloadable form, rather than a cloud solution that gives no guarantee of privacy. Appreciated the sample.......but all of that still left me with open issues about how to tweak the form to serve my particular needs......for example: how to ensure that survivor rights were properly characterized; how far back I should go with the "Source" section + how I should layer my own additions to the chain of ownership, etc. Nonetheless, an overall happy experience. Thank you for your help

We aimed to handle a survivorship affidavit (deed change) without a lawyer following my dad's death. After some searching, deeds.com seemed to have the most comprehensive and "correct looking" form we could find for our locale, so we went with it, and it was accepted by our recorder's office.

I'm not sure why our local government office doesn't offer a standard form, but they don't, and deeds.com came through for us in a pinch.

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.

A great time and money saver that also has a money back guarantee. I received all the pertinent forms and instructions for less than a family eating a fast food dinner.
