To use the Transfer on Death (TOD) Deed under New York’s Real Property Law (RPP) CHAPTER 50, ARTICLE 12 § 424 (effective July 19, 2024), follow these steps:

1. Complete the TOD Deed
Designate a beneficiary: Clearly name the individual or entity (such as a charity or trust) who will inherit your property upon your death.
Include contingent beneficiaries if desired (NOT required). These are backup beneficiaries who would inherit the property if your primary beneficiary cannot (e.g., if they predecease you). Ensure the deed is filled out correctly, including the legal description of the property.

2. Execute the TOD Deed: The TOD deed must be signed by the property owner (the transferor) in the presence of two witnesses and a Notary Public. The witnesses should not be the beneficiaries themselves, as this could raise legal issues.

3. Record the TOD Deed: The completed deed must be recorded with the County Clerk's office where the property is located during your lifetime. Recording the deed is crucial because, without it, the transfer will not be valid upon your death.

4. Retain Ownership During Lifetime: After recording the TOD deed, you retain full control of the property during your lifetime. You can still sell, mortgage, or revoke the TOD deed at any time.
If you change your mind, you can revoke the TOD deed by filing a revocation form or executing a new TOD deed, which automatically invalidates the previous one.

5. Upon Your Death: Upon your death, the property automatically transfers to the designated beneficiary without going through probate.

Key points about when it takes effect:
Timing of Transfer: The deed only takes effect upon the death of the property owner. Until then, the owner retains full control over the property and can revoke or change the TOD deed at any time.

Recording Requirement: For the TOD deed to be valid, it must be recorded with the county clerk during the property owner's lifetime. If the deed is not recorded before death, it will not be effective.

Probate Avoidance: By using a TOD deed, the property passes directly to the named beneficiary without going through probate, simplifying the transfer process and reducing legal costs.

The deed is great. However, I do not believe your Statement of Full Consideration is up to date as it does not give the reference for an exemption on the Transfer on Death Deed.

Thank you Stacie. We'll take a look at those supplemental forms. Have a great day!

Deed.com had some hard to find mineral interest deeds for Oklahoma.I'm an attorney in Texas with no Ok experience. The examples on Deed.com were very useful and saved me lots of time.

The NV Clark County deed upon death was perfect! Our county doesn't offer a template, but rather has a long list of rules and specifications where they expect you to make your own document. I didnt want to risk making an unacceptable form so I purchased the template from Deeds.com. It was easy to use and very thorough. Our deed upon death was notarized and filed with the county with no issue. Save yourselves the time and headache and get the template!

I have one suggestion and couple of question

I would think that most TOD's would be from married couples. It would be real helpful to have a example of the I(we) block for married couples.

Why would I check or not check the "property is registered (torrents)"

Do I need a notarized signature of the Grantee

The process for obtaining document itself was easy, and the included guide and example are great! rnI do have an issue with the format itself, though. The form has pre-defined text boxes, which cannot be altered without partially rebuilding the entire document. For the 'property description' field on the Mineral Deed form, the text box is not large enough for the rather lengthy legal description entered on my original plat.rnFortunately, I have a copy of Adobe Pro, so I have been able to re-build the doc to accommodate this short-coming.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on our legal form. We're pleased to hear that you found the process for obtaining the document and the included guide beneficial.

We understand and appreciate your concern regarding the formatting and size limitations of certain fields, especially the 'property description' field. Our forms are designed to adhere to specific formatting requirements that are often mandated for legal compliance. Making direct alterations to the document can result in them becoming non-conforming, which is why we advise customers to use an exhibit page when their legal description is extensive or does not fit.
