Utah Affidavit of Survivorship: Clearing Title After a Joint Owner's Death
Utah's affidavit of survivorship, also called an affidavit of surviving joint tenant, is governed by Section 57-1-5.1 of the Utah Code. It is used after one owner of jointly held property dies, to update the public record and confirm the surviving owner's title.
How Survivorship Transfers Title in Utah
When property is held in joint tenancy, each owner has a right of survivorship. The deceased owner's interest terminates automatically upon death and passes to the surviving owner or owners by operation of law, without probate. Recording this affidavit discloses that termination in the public record, confirming the survivor's ownership and removing the deceased owner from the chain of title.
What Utah Code § 57-1-5.1 Requires
Under Section 57-1-5.1, the affidavit must cite the interest being terminated; contain a legal description of the property; refer to the recording information of the deed that created the interest; include a copy of the deceased owner's death certificate, or other qualifying government-issued proof of death, attached as an exhibit; and be recorded in the recorder's office for the county where the property is located.
Why Recording the Affidavit Matters
Recording the affidavit maintains a clear chain of title (the property's ownership history), which in turn helps to simplify future sales, refinancing, and other transactions. Each circumstance is unique, so contact an attorney with specific questions or for complex situations.

Had a difficult time finding my download after purchase. Thankfully I had printed the form and had. However it was read only and I'm not experienced enough to be able to change that. So I went into my word program and typed in the form. I should be able to use it for my purpose. Just glad I was finally able to find it after hours of searching online. I'm in my 70's and not real computer intelligent which may have been part of the problem
Sorry to hear of your struggle Margaret, we will try harder to make our forms easier for everyone.

It was very easy to set up the account but then everything is very costly. I didn't see any publications that were free to account holders, so as infrequently I have to do a title search, I may as well just hire an online service to do the legwork too.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Waiting for response to questions about TOD deed. Language doesn't accommodate more than one Grantor and user cannot edit language.
Peter, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry our form didn't meet your needs. We've issued a full refund for your order. Please note that our forms are designed for common transfer scenarios, and we're unable to provide legal advice or guidance on how to complete them. If your situation involves multiple grantors or other complexities, we'd recommend consulting with a local real estate attorney who can ensure your deed is properly drafted for your specific circumstances. We wish you the best.

I found all the forms I needed to complete a Quit Claim Deed on Deeds.com. All the forms are available for download to fill in on my laptop computer. So far the experience has been very good. My only issue would be that the Quit Claim instructions could be more thorough and easier to understand. I am guessing that the State of New Jersey made up the instructions? Unfortunately this has cost me a huge amount of extra time to parse out EXACTLY the terms I need to write on the Quit Claim Deed form. I haven't started the Tax Forms, but hope they will be more straightforward. In general, I DO recommend Deeds.com!
Thanks for the recommendation, Sharon. We appreciate you flagging the New Jersey instructions, and we'll review them with an eye toward making things clearer and more straightforward. Feedback like yours is how we keep improving.

A good service that saves a lot of time and precludes making a trip to the County Assessors Office. Valuable service.
Thank you!

Not sure whether the two forms I printed will be helpful or not. Will find out when I go to a place for completion and to be notorized.
Thank you!

My experience could not have been better. Easy to communicate with, even though I'm largely ignorant of technical problem-solving. I may be addle-minded with 83 years on earth, but I think they actually cared about solving my problem and were sorry it was beyond their territory. Truly extra nice.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I used the "personal representative's deed." There were a few errors, after I went to record it at the county recorder's office. For #7, it should've stated "The estate of Joe Schmoe, hereby grants Mr. Personal Representative....." instead of, "I Mr. Personal Representative, as personal representative, hereby grant to personal representative...." The person at the recorder's office said you cannot state "you are granting property to yourself." Just fix that, and everything else is fine.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.
