What is the California Grant Deed for Life Estate

This life estate deed is a document that transfers ownership of real property, while reserving access and use of the property for the duration of the grantor's life. It allows the original owner (grantor) to remain on the premises with full access to and benefits from the property. The grantee under the deed reserving a life estate for the grantor is not entitled to possession of the property until the grantor dies.

This was easy to use and only contained one glaring error-where to send the completed form to finish the process. I’ve completed the form, does this mean I get the amended deed sent to me? I think not.

Quick and easy! I had previously prepared a Lady Bird deed, submitted it through Deeds.com and it was accepted/recorded by my county in just a few hours. The Deed.com $21 fee was well worth it as I saved fuel, tolls and parking costs not to mention at least 2-3 hours of my time that it would've taken to get downtown and back home!
