Questions answered? Let's get started!

Record the affidavit under the Nebraska Probate 30-24,129 to transfer a decedent's real property without probate when certain criteria are met. The affidavit must be recorded in each county in which the real property described within the affidavit is located, along with a certified copy of the decedent's death certificate.

The affiant, or person executing the affidavit, is the successor in interest to the decedent's real property described in the affidavit, or an agent legally acting on the successor's behalf.

Statutory requirements stipulate that the affidavit state that total value of the decedent's real estate interests is $50,000.00 or less; thirty (30) days have passed since the decedent's death, as evidenced by a certified copy of the death certificate; there is no personal representative or pending petition for appointment of a personal representative; the successor is entitled to receive the property through a homestead, exempt property, or family allowance, or by devise or intestate succession; the successor has made an investigation and was unable to determine a subsequent will; and no other person has a right to the interest of the subject property. In addition, the successor's relationship to the decedent, the total value of the decedent's estate, and a complete legal description of the subject parcel is required. Each successor in interest to the subject property must sign the affidavit in the presence of a notary public.

it would be nice to have explanation of all the forms required. For a first time estate DPOA, I feel a bit insecure with the forms and would like a paragraph explaining specifics for each link and what to complete for the ladybird deed. Otherwise, I love the ease of purchase with immediate links available.
