πŸ“‹ What is the Nevada Affidavit of Death of Joint Tenant?

The Affidavit of Death of Joint Tenant (also called Affidavit Terminating Joint Tenancy) is a sworn statement used to remove a deceased person's name from property title when real estate was held in joint tenancy. When one joint tenant dies, the property automatically passes to the surviving joint tenant(s) by operation of law.

However, the deceased person's name remains on the recorded title until the surviving joint tenant files this affidavit with the County Recorder. The affidavit must include information about the deceased joint tenant, the property, and must be notarized before recording.

Under Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS 111.365), recording this affidavit along with a certified death certificate clears the title and establishes the surviving joint tenant as the sole owner. This is essential for future property transactions, refinancing, or sale.

  5. Sign Before the Notary
    The surviving joint tenant signs the affidavit in the notary's presence. Our notary administers any required oath, witnesses the signature, and applies the official Nevada notarial seal. The signature and seal must be original wet-ink as required by Nevada recording law.

    Take the notarized affidavit along with a certified copy of the death certificate to the Clark County Recorder's Office (or appropriate county recorder). Recording fees apply. Once recorded, the property title is cleared and shows only the surviving joint tenant as owner.

πŸͺͺ Who Must Sign the Affidavit?

Surviving Joint Tenant:

The surviving joint tenant (the person who is still living) must sign the Affidavit of Death of Joint Tenant. This person must provide valid government-issued photo ID (Nevada driver's license, state ID card, U.S. passport, or military ID).

Required Information:

The affidavit must include the full legal name of the deceased joint tenant, date of death, legal description of the property (from the original deed), and statement that the property was held in joint tenancy.

Multiple Surviving Joint Tenants:

If more than two people originally held the property in joint tenancy and one dies, all remaining surviving joint tenants should sign the affidavit. Each signer needs valid ID and can be notarized in the same appointment or separately.
