"Hello my name is Alicia Lowther licensed Real Estate Professional with Realty Executives discussing how to transfer land ownership. Property is transferred through deed. The key components of the deed are you have the guarantor who is the person conveying the property and the guarantee, the person who is receiving it. Things that you need to consider it is it has to be in writing to be legitimate, has to be witnessed, has to be notarized, and also it has to be delivered and accepted. There are different types of deeds, there are different types of ways property can be transferred and you want to make sure that it is being transferred with the rights and interest that were intended. For this reason I would suggest that you contact an attorney to assist you or a title company can also assist you. Now if you decide to do it on your own you can find blank deeds at an office supply store or online. You will need to gather your property documents and take that information to a notary, have it notarized and lastly it needs to be recorded in public records.
