Pass your Las Vegas home to your children — without the transfer tax, and without probate.
A parent-to-child transfer is one of the exemptions Nevada recognizes, so on a $500,000 Las Vegas home the $2,550 transfer tax is usually not owed when the exemption is claimed correctly. TruPoint prepares the deed and the Declaration of Value for $250 plus the $42 Clark County recording fee, and submits it electronically the same day you sign.

Deeding a Las Vegas home to your children — what it costs and what it changes.
In Nevada a parent transfers a home to a child by signing and recording a new deed with the Clark County Recorder, together with a completed Declaration of Value. A transfer from a parent to a child is among the exemptions Nevada recognizes, so the Real Property Transfer Tax of $2.55 per $500 of value in Clark County is usually not owed when the exemption is claimed on the Declaration of Value. On a $500,000 Las Vegas home that is about $2,550 saved. TruPoint prepares the deed and the Declaration of Value for $250, plus the $42 county recording fee, and submits it electronically the same day it is signed. Clark County typically completes recording within the same day to three business days.
There is more than one way to move a home to the next generation, and they do different things. A deed signed today transfers ownership now. A Deed Upon Death names who inherits and takes effect only when you die, leaving you in full control until then. A trust-funding deed puts the property inside a living trust you control. We explain what each document does and what it does not do, and we prepare the one you direct.
Each document does something different. You decide which one we prepare.
Transfer it now
A grant, bargain and sale deed or a quitclaim deed moves ownership to your child today. Your child becomes an owner immediately, which also means the property is exposed to their creditors and their divorce. $250 plus the $42 county fee.
Keep control, transfer at death
A Deed Upon Death names who receives the property and takes effect only when you die. You keep full control, can sell or revoke it at any time, and the property passes outside probate. $250 plus the $42 county fee.
Put it in a trust
A trust-funding deed moves the property into a living trust you control, which is what keeps a Las Vegas home out of probate and lets you set terms for children. $250 for the deed, and we prepare the trust itself separately.
Add a child to the deed instead
Adding a child as a joint owner gives them a present ownership interest now, so their creditors, their spouse and their consent all become part of any future sale. Prepared for $250 when that is what you want.
Several children, one property
Two or more children can take title together, and how they hold it changes what happens when one of them dies. We set the vesting exactly as you direct on one deed, at the same $250.
You live out of state
Plenty of parents own the Las Vegas house and live elsewhere. Sign before any notary where you are, send it back, and we submit it the same day. Nothing requires a trip.
We are a document preparation service, not a law firm, so we explain what each instrument does and prepare the one you choose. Which fits your family is legal advice, and for that you would speak with an attorney.
What happens after you send the intake form, step by step.
1. Send your details
Complete the intake form in about ten minutes, or call. Tell us the property, the children who are receiving it, and whether you want the transfer to happen now or at death.
2. Written quote first
We read the intake, ask anything missing by email, then send a written disclosure, a written contract naming the total, and one payment link covering our fee and the county charges at cost. Nothing is drafted until you approve it.
3. We draft it
We prepare the deed and the Declaration of Value, pull the parcel number and legal description from the recorded document, claim the parent-to-child exemption, and email everything with plain signing instructions.
4. You sign
Sign before any notary — in Las Vegas, Henderson, or wherever you live — then scan or photograph the signed pages back to us.
5. Recorded and returned
We submit electronically to Clark County the same day it reaches us. The county typically completes recording within the same day to three business days, and the recorded copy comes back by email.
One preparation fee. County charges shown separately.
Rates current as of 2026. Your written quote names every line before you pay, and government charges are passed through without markup.

What Las Vegas parents actually ask, answered plainly.
$250 for the deed and Declaration of Value, plus the $42 Clark County recording fee. A parent-to-child transfer is among the exemptions Nevada recognizes, so the $2.55 per $500 transfer tax is usually not owed when the exemption is claimed correctly.
Usually not. Parent to child, and grandparent to grandchild, are among Nevada’s statutory exemptions, claimed on the Declaration of Value that records with the deed. On a $500,000 Las Vegas home that is about $2,550 that stays in the family. We claim it as part of the $250.
Once a deed transfers ownership today, your children are the owners, and a sale or a refinance needs their signatures. A Deed Upon Death instead names who inherits while you keep full control for life. Both are prepared for $250; which suits your family is a question for an attorney.
A Deed Upon Death is $250 plus the $42 county fee and keeps the property out of probate, with no transfer tax because nothing transfers until death. A deed today is the same price. A living trust costs more and does more, because it can set terms and cover other assets.
The property stays in your name and your family goes through the Nevada court process to move it, which takes months and costs far more than a deed. Recording a Deed Upon Death now for $250 avoids that for this property.
Yes. Two or more children can take title on one deed for the same $250, and how they hold it decides what happens when one of them dies. Tell us how you want it vested and we prepare it that way.
The deed and the loan are separate. Whoever signed the mortgage stays responsible until the lender releases them. Most loans contain a due-on-sale clause, and what your specific loan permits is a question for your lender. We prepare the document; we do not advise on your loan.
Once your child owns an interest, that interest is part of their life: their creditors, their marriage, their bankruptcy. Parents who want to avoid that often keep ownership now and use a Deed Upon Death instead, prepared for $250.
Most deeds are drafted within one business day of your approved quote. We submit electronically the same day your signed copy reaches us, and Clark County typically completes recording within the same day to three business days.
Yes. Sign before any notary where you live and scan the pages back. Intake, drafting and electronic submission are all handled remotely, at the same $250 plus the $42 county fee.
Yes. We retrieve the last recorded transfer for $30 and take the parcel number, vesting and legal description from it, so the new deed matches the record exactly.
No. Nevada does not require an attorney to prepare or record a deed. TruPoint is registered and bonded and prepares the document at your direction for $250. Choosing which instrument fits your family is legal advice, and for that you would speak with an attorney.
A template can be valid and still be rejected. Clark County requires the assessor’s parcel number, the grantee’s mailing address, the address for the tax statement and a completed Declaration of Value with the exemption claimed. Most rejected deeds we see came from downloaded forms.
For an exempt parent-to-child transfer in Clark County: $250 preparation plus the $42 recording fee, so $292, with $50 more if you want same-day submission and $15 if you use our partner notary. Your written quote names every line before you pay.
A deed that transfers ownership today can only be undone if your child deeds it back, which is another $250 and their choice, not yours. A Deed Upon Death is different: you can revoke it at any time while you are alive.
Yes. Quinnie is a native English and Vietnamese speaker, so intake, questions and signing instructions can all be handled in either language. Spanish is available through a partner.
