How to Transfer Ownership of Property Understand Legal Considerations. Before proceeding with the change of ownership, it's essential you understand the legal implications and requirements. Review the Current Property Ownership. Find a Conveyancer or Solicitor. Execute a Transfer Deed. Register the Change of Ownership.
The deed must have a minimum 10-point font and one-inch margins on all pages. The deed must identify the municipality and county where the real estate property is located. The deed must include a notary's acknowledgment for any signature on it. The deed must include relevant information about any transfer taxes due.
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.
The most common way to transfer property is through a general warranty deed (sometimes called a "grant deed"). A general warranty deed guarantees good title from the beginning of time.
To change, add or remove a name on your deed a new deed needs to be recorded reflecting the change. Many people think they can come into the office and change the present recorded deed with a form, but that is not the case. Once a deed is recorded it cannot be changed.
