Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Massachusetts

I would strongly suggest using an attorney to prepare and record a proper deed. My firm (along with most firms) charges a simple and low flat fee for the preparation of a deed. You will be responsible for the cost of recording. Please don't hesitate to contact my office.

You don't need an attorney, but for a low one time fee, why bother?

DYI:

1) Go to the Register of Deeds online search;

2) Retrieve a copy of her deed (deed to her);

3) Re-type deed from her, to each of you in your legal names, and legally held as you choose to hold.

The Registry people can often direct you to samples if you go in to the office. They can not offer you legal advice, however. Good Luck!

I strongly suggest you retain an attorney to prepare the deed. However, I would suggest that if you are getting married shortly, that you execute and record the deed after you are married.

The cost of preparing a deed is not a complex task and the preparation cost is not very much and the recording fee is $125.
