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 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 service is excellent. I submitted a Quickclaim Deed so my home would be in the name of a Living Trust I had just created. This was my first attempted at any of this and the staff person, KVH, who reviewed my Deed was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had and to make sure the Deed had the correct information before submittal to the county for recording. I started the process one afternoon and by the next day, the Deed was submitted to, and recorded in, my county. I will use them again whenever needed.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

The TODD form has been notarized and registered with my county Register of Deeds office, so it works just fine.
My only quibble is that when I printed it out, it missed part of the last line of the notary's info and the fine print in the bottom corners. When I printed it at 90% scale, it included those things.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Quite simple and easy.
Only one critique: It would be easier if the names of the PDF would reflect the name of the deed/form such as 'Controlling tax return' rather than '1579101185SF56863.pdf'.
However I love downloading forms rather than mail.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
