Questions answered? Let's get started!

A Vermont gift deed with a limited liability company as its grantor moves real property out of a company's name and into a grantee's name as a gift, with no money changing hands. This form is set up for exactly that configuration: the company appears as the grantor, one authorized signer executes the deed on the company's behalf, and the acknowledgment certificate takes that signer's acknowledgment in a representative capacity.

A deed of gift from a company, not a person

Vermont has no statutory gift deed form, and no Vermont statute implies covenants of title from a deed's label, so a Vermont deed of gift does its work through express language. This deed states the gift character on its face: the company conveys the property as a gift and without monetary consideration, through a granting clause that gives, grants, and conveys, followed by habendum language running to the grantee and the grantee's heirs, successors, and assigns. The warranty posture is express and limited. The company covenants to warrant and defend against claims arising by, through, or under the company, and against none other, with matters listed in the encumbrances section excepted, and the deed states that it carries no other covenant or warranty of title.

Who signs for the limited liability company

Property a Vermont limited liability company acquires is property of the company, not of its members individually, under 11 V.S.A. Section 4031, and under Section 4041 a member holds no agency power over company affairs merely by being a member. The form is built around those rules. The grantor section identifies the company by its registered name, state of organization, and principal office; a separate section names the authorized signer and the capacity held, such as member of a member-managed company or manager of a manager-managed company; and the signature block carries one signature line with printed name, title, and date lines beneath it. The notary section pairs that structure with a representative-capacity acknowledgment in the pattern of Vermont's statutory short forms, naming the signer as the officer of the company acting on its behalf. Because the property belongs to the company, the deed carries no spousal joinder line; Vermont's homestead joinder statute addresses a married individual owner, a configuration this deed does not recite.

Fair market value still counts at the transfer tax counter

A transfer without consideration is still a transfer for Vermont property transfer tax purposes. For a gift, or a transfer for nominal or no consideration, 32 V.S.A. Section 9601(6) measures the taxable value by the fair market value of the property transferred, and under 32 V.S.A. Section 9608 the town clerk cannot record a deed evidencing a transfer unless a completed Property Transfer Tax Return and the required Act 250 certificate accompany it, even where an exemption applies. Exemptions in 32 V.S.A. Section 9603 reach several no-consideration patterns, including transfers between listed family relations, transfers effecting a mere change of identity or form of ownership with no change in beneficial ownership, and certain distributions from a dissolving limited liability company to a member; the guide walks through where an entity-grantor gift sits among them.

Recorded with the town clerk, not a county

Vermont records land instruments by town or city, so the completed deed goes to the clerk of the municipality where the land lies, at the statewide fee of fifteen dollars per page plus fifteen dollars for the transfer tax return filing. Execution is by acknowledgment before a notary public under 27 V.S.A. Section 341, with no witness requirement, and under Section 342 an unrecorded conveyance is not effectual to hold the estate against anyone beyond the grantor and the grantor's heirs, which is what makes prompt recording the closing step of a gift conveyance.

The download prepares a complete package for this deed: the blank gift deed as a fillable PDF, a completed example showing the form filled in for a realistic Chittenden County fact pattern with an LLC grantor and a single grantee, and a plain-language guide that describes every section, the signing formalities, and the recording and transfer tax filings. The materials are informational and are not legal advice; a Vermont attorney can address how these rules operate on a specific conveyance.

Very quick, easy and readily available forms. No wait, no advertisements, no pressure to purchase MORE. I expected to only get part of the information I needed, and for there to be a hidden cost to get the complete package, but surprisingly, I got immediate access to all the forms I ordered, AND THERE WERE NO ADDITIONAL HIDDEN COSTS! How refreshing!

Waiting for response to questions about TOD deed. Language doesn't accommodate more than one Grantor and user cannot edit language.

Reply from Staff

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.
