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.

form worked great but was over priced for such a simple form , should be around $10 and most people could easily create this themselves.
Hi William, thank you for your review. We’re glad the form worked well for you. We understand it may seem simple on the surface, but Transfer on Death Deeds—especially in New York—require precise language and adherence to both state and county-level rules. Our forms are attorney-prepared, regularly reviewed for legal compliance, and include helpful instructions to reduce the risk of costly filing errors. We appreciate your feedback and hope the document serves its purpose smoothly.

I used the "personal representative's deed." There were a few errors, after I went to record it at the county recorder's office. For #7, it should've stated "The estate of Joe Schmoe, hereby grants Mr. Personal Representative....." instead of, "I Mr. Personal Representative, as personal representative, hereby grant to personal representative...." The person at the recorder's office said you cannot state "you are granting property to yourself." Just fix that, and everything else is fine.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

it would be nice to have explanation of all the forms required. For a first time estate DPOA, I feel a bit insecure with the forms and would like a paragraph explaining specifics for each link and what to complete for the ladybird deed. Otherwise, I love the ease of purchase with immediate links available.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I had worked for a couple of months sending things back and forth to the county and still had no success. I decided to use deeds.com and it was all done in a few hours. Such a relief! While I find this to be wrong and the county should work with property owners as well as they work with third parties, I was still grateful for this service.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
