“Cemetery lot” or “burial plot” is a small piece of land in a cemetery used for the interment human remains. A crypt or group of crypts or burial vaults owned by one person in a public or community mausoleum is deemed a cemetery lot.

On every deed admitted to record, except a deed exempt from taxation by law, there is hereby levied a state recordation tax. The rate of the tax shall be 25 cents on every $100 or fraction thereof of (i) the consideration of the deed or (ii) the actual value of the property conveyed, whichever is greater.
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.
You may not sell the final resting place through a broker and may not sell to a funeral director. A cemetery does not have to buy graves back from lot owners. Different rules can apply when a final resting place is owned by more than one person.
Most cemeteries create at least three basic records: a chronological record of burials, a ledger that shows the identity and date of the plots, and a deed to the lot. Funeral homes may have helpful documents.
How can I find out where in a cemetery someone is buried? If you are a relative, you can contact the cemetery's business office and ask for the location of the individual grave. They may request that you come in and they'll give you a map of the cemetery with your loved one's "spot" marked off.
