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.

The process went smoothly and gave me what I needed. As an improvement, I would recommend that deeds.com sends an email when there is a new message in the portal. I didn't get any updates and had to log in to track progress each time.

The Affidavit- Death of Joint Tenant form you provided is not the same form as showed on the Los Angeles County property tax website. It appears that the LA county form requires entering additional info that is not included in your form.

From Pennsylvania here. Documents are great and easy to fill out however you are lacking a couple of things. You only provide the option for a Grant Deed when you purchase by your county which is Mercer County for me. Why not give the ability to get a Warranty Deed that better protects the Grantee? Also, being from Pennsylvania and in a county that mined Buituminous Coal we are required to include the Coal Severance Notice and Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act Notice. You can check the box on your Deed form that they are required and attached but you do not provide the verbiage or form for this. You state that you know what each county requires and include everything required but you do not include these two required Notices. This has been a requirement for years and the wording never changes. I had to look for these Notices and hand type this information and include it on another seperate page after the Notary section on the Deed. The Grantor has to sign the Coal Severance Notice and be witnessed by a Notary so I had to add another place for the Notary and will have to pay twice for witnessed signatures when it could have been included in your document. My Deed from 2003 was done that way and then the Notary statement after that so it was only one notarized witness of signature.

Perfect. Downloaded the forms with no issues, filled them out, had them notarized and recorded all in just a few hours (most of that time was spent at the recorder's office). Highly recommend.
