This enhanced life estate deed is a document that transfers ownership of real property, while reserving full access to the property for the duration of the grantor's life. It allows the original owner (grantor) to remain on the premises with the rights to use or dispose of it at will, with no penalty for waste. The grantor may even reconvey the property to someone else without the grantee's knowledge. The grantee under the deed reserving a life estate for the grantor is not entitled to possession of the property until the grantor dies.

When the enhanced life estate is applied to a quitclaim deed, the transfer of ownership is completed upon the death of the life tenant, but there are no warranties of title.

(This Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

World class forms, great for someone like me that has no clue what I'm doing! Always better to let the pros do it than think one knows it all and gets themselves in trouble!

appreciate the ease of finding a group of forms without the need for a lawyer--the time and expense--for a basic transfer of joint tenancy following a death.

Forms appear to be most current and instructions clear. Inserting grantor/grantee information onto form a bit "clunky" however no major issues. I will be using services again.
