In Missouri, preparing a deed typically falls on the party transferring the property, the grantor. However, its common for the grantor to engage the services of a real estate attorney or a title company to draft the deed to ensure compliance with all legal requirements.
A Beneficiary Deed is one of the simplest, most convenient, and most frequently used methods in Missouri for leaving real estate to your intended beneficiaries upon your death.
A Beneficiary Deed must be signed by the Grantor in the presence of a Notary Public and then properly recorded with the local County Recorder of Deeds office (where the real property is located). A Beneficiary Deed must be recorded to become effective under Missouri law. The Grantee does not sign such deed.
And while the process may vary slightly from state to state, there are some general, basic steps to follow. Get Your State-Specific Deed Form. Look up the requirements for the state the property is in. Decide on Your Beneficiary. Include a Description of the Property. Sign the New Deed. Record the Deed.
You are not required to have an attorney to transfer a deed.

The fee charged by a local County Recorder of Deeds office to record a Beneficiary Deed averages between $24 and $30.
You may either prepare it yourself or contact a real estate attorney to prepare it on your behalf. If you choose to prepare it yourself you will need a standardized form (Quit Claim Deed, Warranty Deed, Beneficiary Deed, any type of Affidavit, etc.) that meets Missouri formatting requirements.
