Stat. §§ 76-3401-76-3423 (the ?Act?). The Act allows an individual to transfer property located in Nebraska to one or more beneficiaries effective at the transferor's death through the use of a special deed referred to as a ?Transfer on Death Deed.?

A person requesting recording of a Nebraska deed must submit to the register of deeds a completed real estate transfer statement (Form 521). Form 521 is published by the Department of Revenue. The new owner (the grantee) or the owner's legal agent must sign it.

A Nebraska deed provides a legal method for the transfer of real estate in Nebraska. Deeds must include the names of the grantor (seller) and grantee (buyer) as well as the legal description of the property and the person to whom the deed should be returned after recording.

You must sign the deed in front of two disinterested witnesses (see Finalizing the Deed, below) and a notary public. You must then record (file) the deed with the register of deeds within 30 days after signing it. Otherwise, it won't be valid.

A quitclaim deed must contain all the details required in a Nebraska deed?such as a legal description of the property (often attached as an exhibit). The current owner quitclaiming a real estate interest must sign the deed, and the signature must be notarized.

To get title to the property after your death, the beneficiary must record a certified death certificate, cover sheet with the legal description of the property, and Form 521 (Real Estate Transfer Statement) in the register of deed's office. The office will forward Form 521 on to the county assessor.
