*The Following Arkansas and Lee County supplemental forms are included as a courtesy with your order.
Real Property Transfer Affidavit
This is a required form due at the time of filing. This form lists 12 transfer tax exemptions that may apply and must be submitted in order to claim one of them.
Homestead Exemption
Amendment 79 provides a tax credit for property owners on their homestead (your primary residence) property. There are only two requirements for eligibility: - The property is your primary residence. - You are the owner of record. The credit is itemized on your Real Estate Tax bill as a credit toward the amount of your taxes due.
Notary Certificate
The supplemental form in this section can be used as loose certificate by notaries in the state.

Revoking a Beneficiary Deed in Arkansas
Beneficiary deeds in Arkansas are governed by A.S.A. 18-12-608. This statute also includes information about revoking an executed and recorded beneficiary deed.
Section 18-12-608 (d)(1) states that a beneficiary deed "may be revoked at any time by the owner or, if there is more than one (1) owner, by any of the owners who executed the beneficiary deed." Why is this flexibility important? Well, life is uncertain and circumstances change. The original beneficiary may no longer be an appropriate recipient of the real property. Perhaps the beneficiary knows about the transfer, but is unable or unwilling to accept it. Instead of disclaiming the gift when the owner dies, thus forcing the property back into the estate for probate, the owner has the option to revoke the beneficiary deed and designate someone else to receive it.
Regardless of the reason, to revoke a beneficiary deed, the owner must execute a document setting forth the revocation and then record it, DURING HIS/HER LIFE, in the county where the property is situated. This should be the same county where the beneficiary deed was recorded earlier.
The owner may also simply sell the property outright, thereby extinguishing any remaining interest in it and leaving nothing to transfer at death. Or, he/she may execute and record another beneficiary deed, naming someone else to receive the real estate. This method is effective because "the recorded beneficiary deed that is last signed before the owner's death is the effective beneficiary deed, regardless of the sequence of recording." ( 18-12-608(e))
Even though there are several options available to revoke or change a recorded beneficiary deed, recording a revocation is the most efficient way to ensure the owner's wishes are carried out. A revocation discontinues the potential future interest described in the beneficiary deed, which then frees the real estate for whatever the owner wishes to do with it next. This is also important because it helps maintain a clear chain of title, which will make later sales or mortgages of the property less complicated.
Note: as with beneficiary deeds, any changes or revocations must be executed and recorded while the owner is alive.
