Questions answered? Let's get started!
How you can revoke a TODD
a. Once a Transfer on Death Deed has been recorded, it can only be revoked in writing.
It cannot be revoked by tearing it up, crossing it out, or writing “void” on it.
To revoke a TODD (or part of it), the revoking document must:
1. Be one of these three types of documents:
A new Transfer on Death Deed that clearly cancels the earlier TODD (either by saying so directly or by naming different beneficiaries in a way that conflicts with the old one), or
A separate written revocation document that clearly states the TODD (or part of it) is revoked, or
A regular deed signed during your lifetime (such as a warranty or quitclaim deed) that clearly states the TODD (or part of it) is revoked.
2. Be properly signed and recorded:
It must be signed and notarized after the TODD being revoked was signed, and
It must be recorded before the owner dies in the same county where the TODD was recorded.
3. Be witnessed by two people.
(b) If more than one owner signed the TODD
If a TODD was signed by more than one property owner:
1. One owner cannot cancel the TODD for the others.
If one owner revokes the TODD, it only affects that owner’s share.
2. For joint owners with survivorship rights:
The TODD is canceled only if all living joint owners revoke it together.
(c) What you cannot do
After a TODD is recorded, you cannot revoke it by a physical act, such as:
tearing it up
writing on it
destroying it
marking it “void”
Only a properly recorded written document can revoke it.
(d) Selling or transferring the property during life
This rule does not limit your ability to sell, gift, or otherwise transfer the property while you are alive.
If you transfer the property during your lifetime, that transfer automatically overrides the TODD.
Summary:
A TODD can only be revoked by a new written, recorded document.
Physical acts do not revoke it.
If there are multiple owners, each owner controls only their own share.
Joint owners must all revoke together to cancel a joint TODD.
Selling or deeding the property during life still works normally.
Important: Your property must be located in Sussex County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

Was insecure about being able to access the information but pleasantly found that the site was easy to use. Seems that I can use it repeatedly to go back and reprint the forms once I paid.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Your instructions and sample are geared towards businesses. It would have been helpful to have included some for us individuals as married couples as well. I also recall one or two spelling errors on the form that I could not fix, and the instructions seem to be for a prior form. This particular registry also required a stamped self-addressed envelope for return of documents. Hey, you asked! Overall, pleased.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Deeds.com has become a great assistant to our firm! The service is of highest quality and consistently helpful to our law firm in its recording needs. It's summer in Arizona and no one I know wants to drive to downtown Phoenix to record a property deed so think I will add "grateful" to my praise.
Thank you, Mary! We appreciate your kind words and are glad to help make recording easier — especially when it means avoiding a summer trip to downtown Phoenix. We’re grateful for your continued trust.
