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 wasn't really what I needed I read and read and read and read and I thought I was to do with for filing for probate or probate executor but instead it was for the property if you are executor and but it wasn't very clear on that so it didn't work for me so I was kind of wasted money

I found there were a large number of documents available to download. The file naming on the PDFs could be more descriptive, and it would be nice to be able to download a complete set with one click.

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.

Ordering and directions were easy. The only thing missing in the instructions was how to record by mail. Thanks!
