Revoking a Nebraska Transfer on Death Deed
The Nebraska Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act is found at Sections 76-3401 to 76-3423 of the Nebraska Revised Statutes. This useful law provides an option for land owners to convey their real estate after their death, but without the need to include it in a will.
A transfer on death deed (TODD), when lawfully executed, allows property owners to retain absolute title to and control over their land during their lives ( 76-3414). The deeds are also revocable (76-3413). In part, these features are possible because unlike traditional deeds (warranty deeds, quitclaim deeds, etc.), TODDs do not require consideration from or notice to the beneficiary ( 76-3411).
Revocability is a valuable feature of transfer on death deeds. With it, land owners can quickly and easily respond to changes in their lives or the lives of their beneficiaries, and redirect any future transfer toward a more appropriate outcome.
The options for revoking a recorded TODD are set out at 76-3413. They include executing and recording one or more of the following: a document that specifically revokes the TODD ( 76-3413(1)(B)); a new TODD that revokes the previous deed and changes the beneficiary or details about the transfer (76-3413(1)(A)); or transferring the real estate with a traditional deed (76-3413 (1)(C)).
Because there is more than one way to revoke a TODD, an instrument of revocation can also provide an endpoint for a recorded (but cancelled) transfer on death deed. Executing and recording such a document before selling the property or simply transferring it to another beneficiary ensures that future title searches will not show the potential for claims against the title from the earlier TODD. The resulting clear chain of title (ownership history) should help to simplify future transactions involving the same real estate.
Overall, transfer on death deeds are flexible tools to consider as part of a comprehensive estate plan, but each circumstance is unique. Please contact an attorney for complex situations or with specific questions.

The process was fast and efficient. I did get a bit confused after entering info for my package but soon realized I had completed this part of the process and only needed to leave the page and wait for review of the document and then the invoice. It was pretty simple. After payment of the invoice I was notified that the document had been submitted. A few hours later I received notice that the document was recorded by the city. It was fast!
We are motivated by your feedback to continue delivering excellence. Thank you!

The guide I needed was very easy to understand and the template was easy to complete. I had a property attorney review the deed before I had it registered and she was impressed. She said she couldn't have written it better herself! Definitely worth the money instead of paying high dollar attorney fees for a simple task.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

This is a great service and terrific value. The form package provided (blank form, example form & set of instructions) was clear and easy to follow. Being able to complete the forms using the computer to insert the needed information saved countless hours. My completed form was accepted by the Clerk & Recorder office without any issue. Well worth the investment

The service was prompt and attentive to my questions. I would've just appreciated a heads up that I also needed to contact the county directly (and provide contact info) to receive a certified copy of the document (Notice of Commencement) in order to submit the certified copy to the Building Department. This was an extra step that I haven't had to complete before using another eRecording service. Even if this extra step is a result of the county's system. I would still have expected a head's up (since there wasn't any info regarding this on the county's site for eRecording).
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

It would be helpful if the numbers on the instruction sheet were on the form. I was confused on page two if the signatures were for witnesses or buyer (grantee).
I do like the form and will use it in the future.
Also page one Grantee's signature only has one line and if there are two buyers need another line.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
