We are not attorneys, we cannot advise, we can only provide self help services at your direction

  • IMPORTANT NOTE: Only by going through escrow and obtaining title insurance can the grantee(s) be assured as to the extent of liens, encumbrances, easements, etc., that could affect the title of the property being transferred. Furthermore, you are advised to consult an attorney for a full understanding of your rights and obligations under California laws regarding property transfers. The transfer of your property may result in gift taxes, the requirement that a gift tax return be filed, capital gains tax implications, the levy of a documentary transfer tax, may trigger a reassessment of your property, or may result in some other type of tax assessment. It is solely your responsibility to pay any applicable documentary transfer fees that may be levied or to pay any increased taxes in case of a higher property tax reassessment. Consult with a CPA or other tax professional if you have questions regarding the tax implications of this transfer.
