Definition: Reserved Life Estate. From ConservationTools.org. The ownership of real estate can be divided into present and future interests. This division enables a landowner to convey land to a land trust or government with the owner retaining ownership during the owners lifetime or some other specified period.
A general warranty deed is a legal agreement that protects a property buyer from any debts held against the property theyre purchasing. If such a debt emerges after the sale, the seller, not the buyer, is financially responsible for that debt.
A transfer on death deed (TODD) is a legal document that allows a person to transfer ownership of their property after they die. By using a TODD, a person can transfer the property directly without going through probate. This procedure can be used for real property like land, houses, buildings, etc.
The Life Estate Deed removes the property from the Life Tenants estate and transfers the property upon the death of the Life Tenant. This eliminates the property from probate. Once this deed is created, the Life Tenant usually CANNOT make changes to title of the property.
Good to know: The General Warranty Deed conveys full rights of ownership to the buyer and provides the buyer with the most protection. It guarantees an unbroken chain of title for at least the last 25 years.
