After the Death of an Owner, How do You Get Title to Property Under a TODD?
After the death of the Owner, the following documents must be filed with the county recording office in which the Transfer on Death Deed was originally recorded:
-
An Affidavit of Identity and Survivorship, which identifies that the Grantee Beneficiary or Beneficiaries survived the deaths of all Owners by at least 120 hours.
-
Certified Copies of Death Certificates for each Owner.
-
A Medical Assistance Clearance Certificate issued by the county agency in which the real property is located for each Owner.
