Questions answered? Let's get started!
563-D:22 Notice of Death Affidavit States – Beneficiaries who receive real property under a transfer on death deed shall file, within 60 days following the death of the transferor, a notice of death affidavit for recording at the registry of deeds in the county where the real property is located.
Title insurance companies want:
a document linking the recorded TODD
to the change in ownership following death
Without the affidavit, the chain of title appears incomplete or ambiguous.
This can cause issues when the beneficiary later sells, mortgages, or transfers the property.
Reasons why:
When a Transfer on Death Deed transfer happens automatically at death, there is no deed signed by the decedent, so without an
affidavit:
a. the public record would still show the deceased owner
b. the beneficiary’s ownership would not appear anywhere
c. the Notice of Death Affidavit serves as the public evidence that title has shifted.
“The filing of the notice of death affidavit is NOT a condition of the transfer of title.”
This means:
The beneficiary owns the property immediately at death by operation of law,
BUT the affidavit is required for recording clarity, taxation, and future transactions.
Important: Your property must be located in Strafford County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the office below.
This Notice of Death Affidavit meets all recording requirements specific to Strafford County.

I have had it reviewed by a mortgage broker and a title manager and both said it was done correctly! Your product and the instructions are what made this possible. It took me several hours as I continued to review your information. I just finished printing and ready to file. Yeah! Thanks! Highly recommend the product!

After a little glitch due to heavy volume at the County Recorder, my document was recorded. County Recorder was closed to public access at the office (due to the coronavirus issues) so all documents were either mailed to them or sent in electronically. Deeds.com was very efficient at their end with very quick responses to my questions and concerns. I would definitely use their services again.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
