I’m in Oregon. Yes, I know it sucks.

I have a 10-acre property in Texas that I want to transfer ownership to my daughter and son in law. They live in Texas.

The property is bare land with no improvements. I own it free and clear. Taxes are paid. No liens or encumbrances.

What’s the easiest and cheapest way to transfer ownership?

Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

Brief and vague.

Looking for something more substantial.

Quit claim. You file the papers, and they have to go to the court house in the county where the property is located, and sign the papers.

Call a local title company in Texas to assist you with the paperwork. Prolly just some small fees for their service.

A simple trip to a title company in Texas should do it, you will have to do some of it by mailed documents.

A country lawyer in KY would whip you up a deed of conveyance for 150-200 bucks. No idea what a country lawyer in TX costs.

Convey by a quitclaim deed. I bet LegalZoom can do it.

If the property is huntable, I might know a guy who will draft something up for you in exchange for a little hunting access.

Is 10 Acres huntable? Put one of those feeders dead center, I suppose.

+1 on quit claim deed


Pay lawyer to draw it up. Sign it and record deed

I love legal zoom. Some of my biggest fees ever were started by legal zoom. If you want a future mess, by all means, use legal zoom.

My advice: find the deed that you obtained to take title to the property. Give a copy of it to a lawyer. Take his/her advice. Have him/her draft a deed and other required papers. Sign them and return to lawyer and have them recorded and forwarded after recording to your grantees.

I bought the property for $1500 years ago.

It’s still worth $1500.

Hence the desire for cheap.

Land Trust. With them as beneficiaries. Do it yourself.


Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.

10 acres in Texas and it is only still worth $1,500? Is it next door to Pete Arredondo or something?

I’ve done the quit claim twice…you can probably find the proper papers are downloadable from the county or state in Texas. State and county websites will generally guide you through the process… you’ll probably only need the services of a notary.

You don't always need a Lawyer.

Of course not. Sometimes you do though. You might not know that at the time, in which case you’ll need an expensive lawyer later.

Definitely do it the cheapest way possible.

That always works the best.
