*The Following New York and Tompkins County supplemental forms are included as a courtesy with your order.
New York Real Property Transfer Report
The complete, digitized transfer report is required at the time of recording. Even non-sale transfers must be accompanied by this form. Follow the link and instructions for downloading on the information sheet provided here.
Combined Real Estate Transfer Tax Return
This form must be filed for each conveyance of real property from a grantor/transferor to a grantee/transferee. Included are line-by-line instructions with a list of New York transfer tax exemptions. Schedules (TP-584.1) are only needed for conveyances pursuant to or in lieu of foreclosure or pursuant to a secured party’s enforcement of a lien or other security interest, conveyances that consist of a mere change of identity or form of ownership or organization, and conveyances for which credit for tax previously paid will be claimed.
New York Non Resident Transfer
Use this form if you are a non-resident of New York State transferring real property. Submit the completed form with full payment of estimated tax due, if any, to the recording officer at the time the deed is presented to be recorded. Do not mail the form to the tax department.
Notary Certificates
The supplemental forms in this section can be used as loose certificates by New York State notaries.
Including:
Correction deeds are sometimes called confirmatory instruments. As such, they confirm and perfect an existing title created earlier and remove any defects from it, but they do not pass title on their own. They make explicit reference to the instrument that is being corrected by indicating its execution and recording date, the place of recording and the number under which the document is filed. They also need to identify the error or errors by type before supplying the correction in the subsequent body of the deed.
A new real property transfer report, RP-5217-pdf (or RP-5217NYC), with original signatures must accompany all deeds in New York, including correction deeds; the same goes for the tax affidavit TP-584, which both seller and buyer must sign. Forms are available at the county recording office or can be ordered online (but not downloaded). As a correction, the transaction may be exempt from transfer tax. Be sure to include proof that the transfer tax was paid, either by including the original cover page of the prior deed, or by providing an affidavit stating that transfer tax was paid with the prior document.
Furthermore, counties often require a cover page, which may be specific to the county or city and provided on their websites. It serves to identify the document more easily and may be called "recording and endorsement (cover) page." New recording fees per page must be paid for a correction instrument.

Review: Pleased with the results, except for the "notice of confidentiality rights" above the QUIT CLAIM DEED headline. Is it needed to be included on the form or can it be removed ? How can it be removed, I do not see a reason for it to be on the print out copy. Thank you.

Review: Good site. Two things to note. 1. The Documentary Transfer Tax Exemption sheet, the word "computer" is used when I think it should be "computed" Error in state form? 2. The California Trust Guide could have a watermark which is less distracting. Kind of hard to read the print with the DEEDS.COM logo so prominent.

Review: This product makes it so much easier to understand and file forms that you might have to pay an attorney to do. All Counties have their own way of submitting forms and with Deeds you have the correct format.

Review: I thought this form was great and easy to complete but the instructions were unclear as to whether the grantee- beneficiaries needed to sign and notarize their signatures as well. It did not appear to be the case but it would be helpful if the instructions spelled this out better.
