Deeds & Property Transfers
Whether you are adding a family member to your property, transferring a home into a trust or LLC, removing a former spouse, or handling property after the death of an owner, Premier Multiservice can assist with the preparation, notarization, and recording of your property documents in Clark County, Nevada.
When Is a Deed Needed?
A new deed may be needed when you want to change how real property is titled or who holds ownership. Common situations include:
Adding or removing a spouse
Adding or removing a family member
Transferring property between parents and children
Transferring property after a divorce
Transferring property into or out of a Revocable Living Trust
Transferring individually owned property into an LLC
Changing ownership percentages
Correcting certain information on a previously recorded deed
Gifting an interest in real property
Preparing a Deed Upon Death
Other permitted changes to the property's recorded ownership
Every property transfer is different. The deed, vesting, supporting documents, and tax treatment required will depend on the circumstances of the transfer.
Clark County Transfer Tax Exemptions
Not every deed requires payment of Nevada Real Property Transfer Tax.
Clark County recognizes several exemptions under Nevada law. Depending on the transaction, an exemption may apply to transfers such as:
Transfers between spouses
Transfers between parents and children
Certain transfers involving Nevada registered domestic partners
Removing a co-owner or joint tenant without consideration
Transfers made pursuant to a divorce
Transfers to or from a trust without consideration
Certain transfers to a business entity that is 100% owned by the grantor
Certain transfers between affiliated business entities
Transfers involving a Deed Upon Death
Certain corrective transfers made to recognize the property's true ownership status
Some exemptions require supporting documentation, such as a divorce decree, trust documentation, proof of business ownership, marriage certificate, birth certificate, or other records.
Premier can assist with preparing the Clark County Declaration of Value and identifying the exemption being claimed based on the information and documentation you provide.
Can't make it to our office? Remote notarization may be available for qualifying transactions.
With Remote Online Notarization, eligible documents can be signed and notarized through an authorized online notarization platform using secure audio-video communication and identity verification.
This can be especially convenient when:
You live outside of Las Vegas or outside Nevada
One of the property owners is in another state
Multiple parties are signing from different locations
You are unable to visit our office
You need to complete a time-sensitive property document
Availability of remote notarization depends on the document, transaction, signer location, recording requirements, and other applicable requirements.
Deed Upon Death & Affidavit of Death of Grantor
A Deed Upon Death allows a property owner to designate a beneficiary who may receive the property upon the owner's death, subject to Nevada law.
When the property owner later passes away, additional documentation is generally required before the beneficiary's interest is reflected in the property records.
Premier specializes in assisting families with the Affidavit of Death of Grantor process, including preparation of the required recording documents and assistance with obtaining supporting documentation.
This service can help families complete the final steps associated with an existing recorded Deed Upon Death.
Medicaid Estate Recovery Letters
Property transfers following a death can involve additional requirements, including issues related to Nevada Medicaid Estate Recovery.
Premier can assist with the administrative process of requesting and obtaining the applicable Medicaid correspondence or clearance documentation needed for qualifying property matters.
We help coordinate the paperwork so families understand what documentation has been received and what may still be required before the property documents can be completed or recorded.
Affidavit of Death of Trustee
When real property is held in a trust and a trustee passes away, the county records may need to be updated to establish the authority of the successor trustee.
Premier can assist with the preparation and recording of an Affidavit of Death of Trustee, along with the applicable supporting documentation, so the public record reflects the change in trusteeship when appropriate.
This service is particularly helpful for families administering a Revocable Living Trust after the death of the original trustee.
