*The Following Pennsylvania and Erie County supplemental forms are included as a courtesy with your order.
Realty Transfer Tax
Complete each section and file in duplicate with Recorder of Deeds when: (1) the full value/consideration is not set forth in the deed, (2) the deed is without consideration or by gift, or (3) a tax exemption is claimed. Note: This is a statewide form, required in every county where applicable.
Transfer Tax
This document provides information on transfer tax in Pennsylvania. It also list transfer tax exemptions to determine whether the deed in question is exempt.
Valuation Factors
If transfer tax is due, this list will show how much is owed by county. The longer version of the list includes past rates.
Homestead Exemption
For properties considered the primary residence of the taxpayer, a homestead exemption may exist. This Erie County Homestead Exemption can reduce the appraised valuation of a primary residence before calculating the property tax owed, resulting in a lower annual property tax rate for owner-occupied homes.
Notary Certificates
The supplemental forms in this section can be used as loose certificates by Pennsylvania notaries.
Including:
A beneficiary of an interest in property in Pennsylvania can disclaim all or part of a bequeathed interest in, or power over, that property under 20 PA Stat. Cons. Ch. 62. This document must be in writing, declared a disclaimer, signed by the disclaimant or a legally authorized representative, and describe the disclaimed property or portion of it ( 6201).
The disclaimer must be delivered to the transferor, donor or representative, trustee or person who has legal title. In the case of an interest passing by death, an executed counterpart may be filed with the clerk of the court in the county where the estate is or will be administered. If it pertains to real property, it may also be recorded with office of the recorder in the county where the property is situated ( 6204).
Even though the Pennsylvania statutes stipulate no time limit to the delivery, the disclaimer must be received no later than 9 months after the transfer is made (e.g. date of death) in order to comply with IRS regulations. In addition, the disclaimer is invalid if the disclaimant has accepted the property, i.e., performed any affirmative act that is consistent with ownership of property, such as acceptance, transfer, or sale of it ( 6206 (a)). A partial acceptance within six months does not preclude a disclaimer ( 6206 (b)).
Once effective, the disclaimer is irrevocable and binding to the disclaimant and all who claim under him or her (( 6205). Be sure to consult an attorney when in doubt about the drawbacks and benefits of disclaiming inherited property.

Review: The certification of trust looks fine to me. I printed it and filled it out and had it notarized today. I have not sent it to the company that wants it yet so that will be the test. They are very picky. If they have any comment I will let you know.

Review: As promised, my forms were immediately ready for download. The forms were exactly what i wanted. I couldnt be happier and i cant even guess how much money i saved. They were even formatted to the exact font, spacing and margin used by my county. It is obvious a lot of time and effort was put into the preparation of these documents. They are absolutely perfect. Check it out, you wont be disappointed and the price is much less than i expected. Don caldwell

Review: The process for receiving the quitclaim document worked well. I couldn't use the document. If I had been able to view the document before I had to pay for it, I would have known, but that isn't how your process works. However, that's the only snag I found. Otherwise the process for paying and downloading the document worked well. Thank you.

Review: I filled out the deed, had it notarized, and recorded. No problems. I put this off for so long. Once I had the form it was recorded in one day.
