FAQ
No. Cemetery property is owned by the cemetery corporation. The real property is not sold. The lot “owner” receives three privileges: the right of burial, the right to memorialize and the right to vote at lot owner meetings.
Often, a cemetery will issue a ``deed'' at the sale of a grave space or lot of graves. This deed is NOT an issuance of any real estate. It is, in fact, a promissory note which prevents the cemetery from using that, particular space to bury anyone else.
How to Transfer Ownership of a Burial Plot Step 1 – Get the Deed From the Cemetery. Step 2 – Review the State and Local Laws. Step 3 – Prove You Are the Current Owner. Step 4 – Fill Out the Cemetery Plot Deed Transfer Form. Step 5 – Complete the Transfer and Get the New Deed.
While the cemetery retains ownership of the land, you are purchasing the right to use the land for a burial. However, some locations in the United States can potentially reclaim the space if there has been no activity with the space for an extended period of time.
In the U.S., a purchased cemetery plot belongs to you forever. In some instances, however, if a cemetery is considered “abandoned,” the state can reclaim the land and discontinue interments.
Yes, Cemetery Plots Are Real Estate. The cemetery company owns the land, as it holds the deed to the cemetery.
Cemetery deed forms are documents that are used to transfer ownership of a burial plot. They include information such as the name of the buyer, the name of the seller, the name of the cemetery, the plot number, and the section or block where the plot is located.
