A property deed is a formal, legal document that transfers one person or entity's rights of ownership to another individual or entity. The deed is the official “proof of transfer” for real estate, which can include land on its own or land that has a house or other building on it.
Checklist: Preparing and Recording Your Quitclaim Deed Fill in the deed form. Print it out. Have the grantor(s) and grantee(s) sign and get the signature(s) notarized. Fill out a Statement of Value form, if necessary. Get the Uniform Parcel Number (UPI) on the deed certified, if required by your county.
This can only be done by recording a new deed showing the change. A transaction must take place between the old owners and the new owners. Many people think they just come to the office and change the present deed on record. However, once a document is recorded, it cannot be changed.
Once a deed is recorded it cannot be changed. We recommend you consult a real estate attorney or title company to prepare a new deed. If a married couple held the property jointly as tenants by entireties and one spouse dies, it is not necessary to remove that spouse's name from the deed.
Can I Transfer a Deed Without an Attorney? The state of Pennsylvania does not require an attorney, but we strongly recommend it.
Once you've recorded a deed, it's a part of the public record and can't be changed. That's the bad news. The good news? You can execute a new deed called a correction deed to amend that original record.
To add, remove, or change a name on a deed, have a lawyer, title company, or other real estate professional prepare the deed. Then, record the new deed with the Department of Records. Note: We recommend that you do not prepare a deed on your own. We also recommend that you get title insurance.
A real estate lawyer assists in preparing the new deed, ensuring it's signed before a notary public, recording it with the county's Recorder of Deeds office, paying any applicable fees, and obtaining a copy of the recorded deed.
