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.

This was such an easy transaction and quicker than if I went to the recording office. During this time of COVID19 and not being able to record documents in person it helped us to get what we needed and quickly. Thank you!
Thank you!

Our home was in only my husband’s name and as we are getting older, it was time to add my name to the Deed to avoid potential issues in the future. Our experience with Deeds.com was wonderful. The website is user friendly, instructions written in layman’s terms, straightforward and easy to follow. Very reasonably priced. I highly recommend using Deeds.com.
Thank you for the kind words Cindy. We appreciate you. Have an amazing day!

As good as any of the rip off document services on the internet. Received the documents through download, were as described. Not as cheap as driving to the courthouse and getting them for free, but easier than doing so.
Thank you, Pat. We’re glad the documents were as described and easy to access. Just to clarify — Johnson County doesn’t provide a Transfer on Death Deed form. We make the correct, recordable version available, and any required supplemental forms are free on our site, with or without purchase.

I love whoever is behind this website. I bought the wrong form and I told them and they refunded me asap! I figured out which form I need days later and bought it just now. They didn't have to refund me for my own mistake. That was very kind. I'll be returning for any other forms I may need and will tell others too. Thank you so much!!!!!
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Ordered the forms, completed them, had them notarized, then erecorded all in under 2 hours. Would have been faster but had to wait for the bank to open for notary. Might try the online notary next time. Fantastic experience.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
