Recording Quitclaim Deeds in Massachusetts Any real property transfer, even if it's just adding a family member to a title, requires a new deed. The seller and buyer must sign the deed, and a notary public must acknowledge the signatures to confirm the transaction.
When you buy a home, you need both the deed and the title; one isn't better than the other. The title is the concept of legal ownership while the deed is the document that proves ownership. Moreover, you can't have a valid house deed if you don't hold title.
It usually takes four to six weeks to complete the legal processes involved in the transfer of title.
A gift deed, or deed of gift, is a legal document voluntarily transferring title to real property from one party (the grantor or donor) to another (the grantee or donee). A gift deed typically transfers real property between family or close friends.
In Massachusetts, you generally have six choices for transferring your real estate to an adult child: Transfer by deed during your lifetime. Transfer by enhanced life estate deed during your lifetime. Transfer by deed to joint ownership with right of survivorship. Transfer by trust to child after your death.
Many people who are worried about what will happen to their home when they die ask us whether it would be better to simply add their child's name to their deed. We caution against adding your child to your deed and, in almost all cases, recommend including them in your will instead.
The deed is the legal document that “documents” change of ownership, i.e. the transfer of title from one owner to another. The title is not a physical object. It is more a concept which defines the person, more than one person, business or other entity who owns the property.
If Your Name Is On The Deed, You Hold Title to the Property Taking title usually entitles you to stay in the house, host a barbecue, flooring, or whatever else you want (unless you have an HOA, of course), and it usually comes as a package deal with your house deed.
The title is the concept of legal ownership while the deed is the document that proves ownership. Moreover, you can't have a valid house deed if you don't hold title.
