Complete and record this form, along with an official copy of the deceased joint tenant's death certificate, to formalize the transfer of property rights to the surviving co-owner.
To remove the decedent's name altogether, execute a new deed showing both joint tenants as grantors and only the survivor as a grantee. For example: "John Doe (deceased) and Richard Roe, as joint tenants with right of survivorship, convey to Richard Roe as sole owner." Present the new deed along with the affidavit of surviving joint tenant or submit it for recording on its own at a later date.

I use deeds.com for all of my document filing needs. The amount of time and money saved on making trips to the auditor's office is well worth the nominal fee that is charged. I highly recommend deeds.com!
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!

I did not receive the information in a timely fashion as stated on the website. I would not recommend this service.
Thank you for your feedback Sandra. In reviewing your order I see that it did take our staff 11 minutes to respond to your order. That is significantly longer than the 10 minute average listed on our website. Even in these unprecedented times of quarantines and staff shortages our failure is unacceptable. We have fully refunded your account and we do hope that you found something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.
