Questions answered? Let's get started!
This document allows someone to swear they have reviewed a death certificate and verify its contents for real estate transactions when the actual death certificate cannot be attached to the paperwork.
What this form DOES:
Confirms someone has seen and reviewed a certified death certificate
Provides sworn verification of death certificate details (date of death, state issued, certificate number, etc.)
Serves as a substitute for attaching the actual death certificate to real estate documents
What this form DOES NOT do:
This is NOT an "Affidavit of Death" (which removes deceased owners from property titles)
Does not transfer property ownership or update property records
Does not serve as official notice of death to banks or other institutions
Does not affect how property passes to survivors
When to use this form:
Use only when a title company, lender, or other party in a real estate transaction specifically requires verification that a death certificate exists but does not require the actual certificate to be submitted.
(Florida Affidavit of Death Certificate Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)
