Gifts of Real Property in Colorado
Gift deeds convey title to real property from one party to another with no exchange of consideration, monetary or otherwise. Often used to transfer property between family members or to gift property as a charitable act or donation, these conveyances occur during the grantor's lifetime. Gift deeds must contain language that explicitly states that no consideration is expected or required. Ambiguous language, or references to any type of consideration, can make the gift deed contestable in court.
A lawful gift deed includes the grantor's full name and marital status, as well as the grantee's full name, marital status, vesting, and mailing address. Vesting describes how the grantee holds title to the property. Generally, real property is owned in either sole ownership or in co-ownership. For Colorado residential property, the primary methods for holding title in co-ownership are tenancy in common and joint tenancy. An estate conveyed to two or more persons vests as a tenancy in common unless otherwise specified ( 31-101, 38 C.R.S.). The primary characteristic of joint tenancy is the right of survivorship. In Colorado, when joint tenancy is declared, the right of survivorship is presumed ( 31-101, 38 C.R.S.).
As with any conveyance of realty, a gift deed requires a complete legal description of the parcel. Recite the source of title to maintain a clear chain of title, and detail any restrictions associated with the property. Each grantor must sign the deed in the presence of a notary public for a valid transfer. All signatures must be original.
A documentary fee is typically imposed on an instrument based on the amount of consideration paid for the transfer ( 13-102, 39 C.R.S.). However, since no consideration is exchanged when gifting real property, these conveyances are exempt ( 13-102(2)(a), 39 C.R.S.). This exemption should be indicated on the first page of the instrument.
In Colorado, a real property transfer declaration (TD-1000) is required for all conveyance documents. This form can be completed by either the grantor or the grantee, and it must be filed with the instrument ( 14-102(1)(a), 39 C.R.S.). Record the completed deed, along with any additional materials, in the clerk and recorder's office of the county where the property is located. Contact the same office to verify accepted forms of payment.
With gifts of real property, the recipient of the gift (grantee or donee) is not required to declare the amount of the gift as income, but if the property accrues income after the transaction, the grantee is responsible for paying the requisite state and federal income tax.
In Colorado, there is no state gift tax. For questions regarding state taxation laws, consult a tax specialist. Gifts of real property in Colorado are, however, subject to the federal gift tax. The person or entity making the gift (grantor or donor) is responsible for paying the federal gift tax; however, if the donor does not pay the gift tax, the donee will be held liable.
In accordance with federal law, individuals are permitted an annual exclusion of $15,000 on gifts. This means that if a gift is valued below $15,000, a federal gift tax return (Form 709) does not need to be filed. However, if the gift is something that could possibly be disputed by the IRS -- such as real property -- a donor may benefit from filing a Form 709.

Your product package was thorough and I am the one who does not know how to use or begin to be interactive with a computer. I wish I had learned long ago....ok your directions appear to be clear but when you are not familiar to the words.....it can and is difficult.....I downloaded the forms and completed them by hand/pen.....I just hope it will be acceptable to the recorder....Thank you

Using your site made gifting personal property (land) so quick and easy. The forms were presented ready to complete and included detailed instructions. The "completed form" example was helpful. I definitely recommend your site to anyone who does not wish to pay expensive lawyer fees.

It was a very easy to use application. I can only give it four stars because I have yet to receive confirmation from the county that my application was acceptable, ie., format, font, etc. I believe it will be fine.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Sorry that this a little late. I'm VERY HAPPY with everything. The deeds paperwork was just what I was looking for. It was very to fill out, it was different than n the folks used years ago. I called the county clerk, and they were very helpful. Thank you for the paperwork it was easy to use and understand.

First the convenience to get forms without going or calling Recorder's office is outstanding. Suggest that Recorder's staff be able to guide or assist users in filling up the forms.
