A Michigan lady bird quitclaim deed is based on the statutes regarding power of appointment. According to Michigan Land Standards 6th Edition, Standard 9.3

Michigan Land Title Standards Act 9.3 reads: The holder of a life estate, coupled with an absolute power to dispose of the fee estate by inter vivos conveyance, can convey a fee simple estate during the lifetime of the holder. If the power is not exercised, the gift becomes effective.

In Michigan, a Lady Bird Deed Quitclaim Deed is a type of Quitclaim Deed that allows the Grantor, to transfer their property upon their death to a named beneficiary. This is a great tool for estate planning and helps to avoid probate court. These courts deal with someone's assets and belongings after they pass away. Going through this court is typically expensive and time-consuming.

As long as the Grantor lives, he/she/they are free to sell the property to someone else, give the property away as a gift, encumber the property with mortgages and liens, rent the property to tenants, and even execute a brand-new ladybird deed defeating Grantee's contingent interest in favor of someone else. Grantee(s) does/do not have any tangible rights to the property until Grantor's death when the contingency becomes vested.

Consult an estate planning attorney with questions including ladybird deeds.

Great examples on how to fill out the quitclaim deed, but no info on how to fill out the cover sheet.

Get Rid of the places to initial each page on the Trust Deed. The Co. Recorder (Davis) does not require that each page be initialled... If I and the "borrower" had initialed each page, then I would have to use US Mail to get the form from AZ to UT because scans of initials are not acceptable, but only a notarized signature from the borrower is...

This is a great service and terrific value. The form package provided (blank form, example form & set of instructions) was clear and easy to follow. Being able to complete the forms using the computer to insert the needed information saved countless hours. My completed form was accepted by the Clerk & Recorder office without any issue. Well worth the investment

Thanks for advertising the forms and sharing to the public for easy access. I have been looking for a lawyer to process the papers but did not realize that I can do it myself until I googled the information. I found your website. Thanks again

So far help has been good given some of the information you don't have as far as making corrections. This is my first time using your service so maybe I will be better at utilizing it if I have to again.

Great Job guys! I would not even have thought to look for this service. The county recorder's office and kiosks are all closed because of covid. I was directed to you because of a referral on the county site. I wish I had known you had forms available as well. I searched for a day to find the appropriate form.
