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.

I needed a quitclaim deed to transfer ownership of a home. An attorney wanted $400.00 to file the deed. I downloaded a blank deed for my area from deeds.com. I received it instantly. (Small fee) it came with instructions and a template. I filled it out and submitted it to the County Clerks office.it was simple and I saved a lot of money. There may be other forms you need, check with whoever you are submitting the deed. You'll have additional fees, but that is up to the municipality in which you reside. It will be helpful if you have the latest deed on file. It was much easier than I thought. This is an easy website to navigate through and it is 100% legitimate. I recommend Deeds.com.

Great product. It would be better if the document files were not embedded within other files. It made downloading a little confusing. The titles of the forms did not match exactly word for word, which required a lot of back and forth to make sure I had downloaded the proper document. What would be great is if once you download a document, the hyperlink changed color, or somehow denoted the document had been downloaded. Just a suggestion. You have my email address if you have questions. STILL! Five stars for you guys. I would not let that hiccup dissuade me from buying any form package from you guys. Thanks!
