Questions answered? Let's get started!
On July 1, 2013, Virginia enacted the Uniform Real Property Transfer on Death Act, codified at VA Code 64.2-621 et seq. (2012).
While the statutes contain suggested forms for the actual transfer on death deeds and associated revocations, the specifics for completing the transfer after the owner dies are less clear. In many cases, non-probate transfers of real property happen "as a function of law." In theory, this means there is no need for the beneficiary to act -- the named owner of the property automatically changes. In practice, however, it benefits the interests of all parties involved to formalize the updated status as soon as reasonably possible, especially since the beneficiary has the right to disclaim the conveyed interest.
One efficient method for stating the beneficiary's intent to accept the real estate is to execute and record an affidavit, which is a document containing statements made under oath. The affidavit should, at minimum, include:
1. The parties named in the transfer on death deed;
2. Residency and death information about the deceased owner;
3. Recording details for the transfer on death deed;
4. A description of and property ID for the real property being transferred;
5. Official copies of any necessary death certificates; and
6. Anything else required by the local agency responsible for recording and maintaining land records. In Virginia, this is typically the office of the clerk of the circuit court.
By recording such an affidavit, the beneficiary provides notice to the public of the change in ownership of the property. This is important because it helps to maintain a clear chain of title, or sequential record of owners. A clear chain of title will simplify future sales or mortgages of the property, since it indicates a reduced chance of unexpected claims against present or future owners.
Each situation is unique, so for specific advice, or to resolve more complex issues, contact a local real estate attorney.

The deed is presently at the auditors office and will be recorded after approval from zoning board. As far as I know, everything is going along well. A self addressed envelope was left at recorder's office for return after recording is complete.
Thank you!

The service was great but after I did all my work and uploaded the documents they canceled my stuff because the county they had on the list doesnt take/or have set up e-recording yet. It was a bit disappointing because thats the only reason I was on here is because it brought me here from that countys sight.
Thank you for your feedback, sorry we were not able to provide the service for you. Hope you have a great day.

Form and instructions were useful. But I suggest creating a form for transferring a deed pursuant to a trust. The existing form is based on a will going through probate so it doesn't fit the trust situation in some respects.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

My overall experience was positive. Little trouble uploading documents but resolved. I had two mineral deeds to file in Arkansas, two different counties, exactly the same form, only difference being property description; one was completed, one was canceled. I emailed to inquire why and the reply was in an automatic email indicating that email address was not monitored and if further action would be taken on Deeds.com part, I would be notified. Other than that, I would recommend their services to avoid using snail mail.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
