For this reason, most states treat cemetery plots a bit\ndifferently from other forms of real estate, limiting the circumstances under\nwhich they can be bought or sold, controlling who can buy or sell the plots, or\nestablishing protocols to ensure people have equal access to particularly\ndesirable plots. For example, it&#8217;s common to purchase a plot in a specific row,\nrather than being able to seek out the specific individual plot of your choice.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed, most states require that some portion of the\ncemetery plot&#8217;s price go to the maintenance and perpetual care of the cemetery\nand the plots contained therein. For this reason, the process of transferring\nownership can be cumbersome. It&#8217;s a good idea to begin the process well before\nthe person to whom you are transferring the plot needs it. And don&#8217;t forget to\nexplore your own burial options, since the cemetery plot shortage means that\ntransferring your plot to someone else could leave you without a plot of your\nown!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Basic Transfer Process <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the greatest challenges of buying, selling, and\ntransferring cemetery plot ownership is that state and local laws vary so\ngreatly. At some cemeteries, transferring ownership is a simple matter of\nfinding a buyer and filing the right paperwork. At others, cemetery plot\ntransfer is a government matter that requires approval of a government agency.\nFor this reason, before you transfer your plot, you&#8217;ll need to review the\nfollowing documents:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The contract with the cemetery itself, which may\noutline the specific situations when you can transfer ownership of the plot. <\/li><li>State and local ordinances governing cemetery\nplot transfers. <\/li><li>Any contracts you have with another party,\nincluding contracts to sell or transfer the plot in return for services or\nother valuable goods. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;ve already accepted money for the\nplot, promised it to a family member, or even begun the process of transferring\nownership. Without following the contract with the cemetery and your local and\nstate laws, you may not be able to complete the sale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even something as seemingly trivial as buying a cemetery\nplot in a specific county or city can affect the sale process. In Newnan,\nGeorgia, for instance, you can transfer a cemetery in a will. But outside of a\nlegally valid will, you cannot sell or transfer ownership to another party without\nthe permission of the City Manager. Additionally, would-be sellers must seek\npermission via a Cemetery Lot Transfer Form completed and submitted along with\nthe deed transfer. Because the process varies so much and can be quite\ncumbersome, consider talking to a lawyer before transferring your plot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Role of Cemetery Management <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Owning the deed to a cemetery plot does not make you the\nowner. Instead, it simply gives you a right to use the plot. In most cases, the\ncemetery management company remains the owner of the plot itself, so reviewing\nthe company&#8217;s rules and regulations is critically important. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In most states, you can transfer ownership of a cemetery\nplot to a family member in your will. But if you intend to sell the plot, that\nmay be another matter entirely. For instance, in New York, cemetery plot\ntransfers are overseen by the Division of Cemeteries. The Division requires\nthat owners offer the plot to the cemetery corporation first, at the price\noriginally paid plus four percent simple interest from the date first\npurchased. Only if the cemetery corporation declines to buy the plot can you\nthen transfer ownership to another party. And even then, you&#8217;ll need to seek\nthe permission and approval of the Division of Cemeteries prior to commencing\nwith the transfer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you opt to sell your cemetery plot, talk to the\nmanagement of the cemetery first. A handful of cemeteries, particularly those\nowned by religious organizations, fall outside of state and local laws, and may\nestablish their own procedures for buying, selling, and transferring land. Your\ncontract may further stipulate that you must consult with the management\ncompany prior to transferring the plot. And, of course, notifying the\nmanagement company of the transfer helps you iron out any problems before they\nbecome so severe they delay a burial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Using the Right Deed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because cemetery management companies are the rightful\nowners of cemetery plots, you&#8217;ll need to verify both that the ownership\npaperwork is legally valid, and that the cemetery management company will allow\nownership to be transferred. This usually requires nothing more than a simple\nphone call, but your county clerk can verify for you whether or not the deed\nhas been filed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you verify the deed and the right to transfer\nownership, you will need to file paperwork in your county clerk&#8217;s office\nchanging the owner&#8217;s name on the cemetery plot deed. This is a simple matter of\naltering the current ownership papers, and is often the least cumbersome part\nof the ownership transfer process. The transfer will not be complete until the\npaperwork is filed with the county clerk, and you have received permission from\nany regulatory body overseeing the plot. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thoughts of your eternal resting place might seem needlessly ghoulish, and transferring ownership of a cemetery plot to a family member might feel downright cruel.
