Questions answered? Let's get started!

A Texas transfer on death deed (TODD) allows property owners to designate a beneficiary who will receive real estate upon the owner's death, outside the probate process. The owner retains full control during their lifetime: they can sell, mortgage, rent, or use the property however they wish, with no obligation to notify the beneficiary (Tex. Est. Code § 114.101).
IMPORTANT: Transfer on death deeds and associated revocations must be recorded while the owner is alive or they have no effect.

Revocability
The deed is completely revocable. Because no consideration changes hands and beneficiaries need not be notified, the owner can change their mind at any time by recording a new TODD, executing a revocation, or conveying the property to someone else (§ 114.052, § 114.057).

Execution Requirements (§ 114.055)
To be valid, a Texas transfer on death deed must meet all state and local standards for recordable deeds, state that the transfer takes effect at the owner's death, and be recorded in the county clerk's office where the property is located during the owner's lifetime.

How Title Passes
The deed conveys title without warranties, subject to any existing encumbrances at the time of death (§ 114.104(a)). Multiple beneficiaries receive equal, undivided shares with no right of survivorship unless otherwise specified (§ 114.103(a)(3)). Beneficiaries may disclaim all or part of their interest if desired (§ 114.105).

Coordination with Estate Plans
Under § 114.057(b), the recorded TODD takes precedence over conflicting provisions in the owner's will. For a cohesive estate plan, all documents should work together to carry out the owner's intent.
Texas adopted transfer on death deeds under the Texas Real Property Transfer on Death Act (Chapter 114, Texas Estates Code), modeled after the Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act. The effect of a TODD on a comprehensive estate plan and eligibility for needs-based benefits varies by situation. For complex circumstances or additional questions, consult a local attorney.

I found the documents I needed and so many more that I will utilize for business, personal and family needs. Also I made a purchase of an additional document I did not need that serves the same purpose as one I purchased and Deeds.com had no issue refunding the unnecessary document in an unbelievably quick response and refund. I would recommend this document provider to everyone including legal office management.

The Transfer On Death Deed did work for New Mexico! Though I did have to add the long property description to the "Exhibit" page that was included with the document. Great website! Will use again! Thanks!!!

Very easy process for both quit claim and beneficiary deed forms and explanations.. also gives an example form filled out to ensure you have something to go by when filling out your own for accuracy.. the forms are for your specific county, city, and state so no problems when you go to record at deeds office!

Reply from Staff

Thank you, Bonnie! County-specific forms, clear instructions, and a filled-in example to guide you — that's exactly the experience we aim for. So glad both deeds went smoothly from form to recording. We appreciate the kind words!

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.

I find your forms hard to use, inasmuch as the forms cannot be converted to a Word Document. Editing and deleting of extra lines is not possible, making for a deed with large blank spaces. Document that results is not usable for me.

Sorry to hear that we did not meet your expectations. We have canceled your order and payment. We do hope you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere. Have a wonderful day.

It just a little disconcerting that I was not able to preview any of the forms prior to purchasing them. Thank goodness they were the correct forms I needed. I would suggest being able to at least make the picture of the forms a little larger or give the capability to zoom in.

Very easy to use and no hidden costs. You get to download whatever you need and can save it and even reuse it. So it's like having your own library of form that you pay for once. They even give you more related forms than you ask for and it turned out we needed some if those forms as well. The forms meet what our county requires for margins in records and so on. So I will use deeds.com again when I need a different kind of legal form.
