Real Estate Title Transfers

Legal Support for Changing Property Ownership

Why You Need an Attorney

Even seemingly simple title transfers can result in serious issues if not handled correctly. With a knowledgeable attorney, you can:

  • Ensure the deed is drafted and executed accurately

  • Navigate Colorado’s specific legal requirements

  • Avoid unintended tax implications or title disputes

  • Make sure your estate plan and property ownership are aligned

  • Ensure that no fraudulent documents have been recorded against your property.

A title transfer is the legal process of changing ownership of real estate from one person or entity to another. In Colorado, this usually involves:

  • Preparing a deed

  • Drafting the correct type of deed

  • Recording the deed with the county clerk and recorder

  • Ensuring compliance with Colorado real estate and tax laws

You may need a title transfer when:
✔ Adding or removing a spouse
✔ Placing property into a trust
✔ Gifting property to a family member
✔ Handling real estate after a divorce

What Is a Title Transfer and When Do You Need One?

Don't rely on DIY forms—get peace of mind that your property rights are protected.

Different situations require different deed types. At Husson Law LLC, we can help determine which is right for you:

✔ Warranty Deeds – This is the most common type of deed given to owners of residential real estate in Colorado. For married couples, including joint tenancy language is essential.

✔Quit Claim Deeds – Transfers ownership with no warranties, often used between family members, former spouses, or to move property into a trust.

✔Beneficiary Deeds – Also known as a Transfer on Death (TOD) deed, this allows property to pass directly to a named beneficiary upon death without going through probate.
