Questions answered? Let's get started!
When real estate in California is owned by joint tenants and one of the owners dies, the remaining owner(s) can clear the title by recording an affidavit of Death of a Joint Tenant.
Joint tenancy is a way for two or more people to own property in equal shares so that when one of the joint tenants dies, the property can pass to the surviving joint tenant(s) without having to go through probate court.
The affidavit should be recorded in order to be binding on others. Take a certified copy of the death certificate of the deceased joint tenant and your affidavit to the recorder's office in the county where the real property is located.

Deeds.com was a wealth of information and easy to navigate through the myriad of forms to choose from. During a time of family tragedy, this site was a valuable resource to complete necessary paperwork and ensure assets were in proper names and titles.
We are sincerely grateful for your feedback and are committed to providing the highest quality service. Thank you for your trust in us.

The form was incompatible with my son's new computer. I do not have a printer. We did use your form to type a copy into "word" so he could print it.
Thank you!

It was easy to download. And your guide was informative as was the completed form for an example. But I wish that I had been able to edit the forms online and then print. My handwritten info is just not as crisp.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I was hoping to find information of a property belonging to my grandparents. Your site says it can go back 10-20 years I will just have to go to the courthouse and research. But very good site if your looking for recent information.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
