Real Estate Information
CONVEYING PROPERTY
The transfer of real estate is a legal transaction. Generally, in order to change ownership of real estate, a new deed must be drafted and submitted to the Register of Deeds office for recording, along with a completed Real Estate Transfer Return. The Register of Deeds office is charged with the duty of being an independent custodian of records relating to real estate. As such, the only area we can assist you in is general process questions. We cannot tell you which forms to use, assist you in the actual drafting of documents, or give you legal advice. It is recommended that you enlist the service of an attorney or other qualified professional to complete your transfer.
