Transfer on Death Deed by Unmarried Grantor Owner -- Minnesota Form 10.8.1
In Minnesota, transfer on death deeds are governed by Minn. Stat. 507.071.
While the statute provides a basic form, as well as overall content requirements, the state authorized the development of uniform conveyance documents for some specific situations. For example, to add clarity, there is a form specifically designed for use by unmarried grantor owners. A correctly-completed basic statutory form is valid in most cases, but it asks for information that may not apply to a single individual. By providing incorrect or conflicting information, even if it is unnecessary, the grantor owner might inadvertently cause the property to revert to the deceased owner's estate for probate distribution.
This transfer on death deed form is for use ONLY by unmarried grantor owners.
As with other transfer on death deeds, this form must be executed and RECORDED during the grantor owner's lifetime.
(Minnesota TOD Deed by Unmarried Owner Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)
Important: Your property must be located in Benton County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.
This Transfer on Death Deed by Unmarried Owner meets all recording requirements specific to Benton County.

The Transfer on Death Deed form package was very good. But like anything, could use some improvements. There is not enough space to fill more than one beneficiary with any level of additional detail like "as his sole and separate property" The area for the legal description could be a bit bigger and potentially fit many legal descriptions. Or it could be made to simply say "See Exhibit A" as is likely necessary for most anyway. The guide should indicate what "homestead property" means so the user doesn't have to research the legal definition. (which turns out to be obvious, at least in my state, if you live there, it's your homestead.) It would be helpful if an "Affidavit of Death" form were included in the package for instances where the current deed hasn't been updated to reflect a widowed owner as the sole owner before recording with only the one signature.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Ordered a 'Gift Deed' form The 'Example' form was most helpful. The actual form was very detailed, and seemed to 'cover all the bases'
