Hello all,

Excuse my ignorance, but what doe a Timeshare Deed look like? I do not see any documents that have the word "deed" on them. I do have something that is called "Condominium Conveyance".

Many thanks in advance

My deed does say "Deed" on the top, along with the state, county, filing and recording dates, etc. It is about 4 pages long with many signatures (that both the seller and buyer signed). Hope this helps.

It really depends on the state or jurisdiction that you are talking about, as practices and laws can vary greatly from one to another. In many, a TS convenyance is treated just like any other transaction in which the seller (grantor) signes a document, often entitled "Deed" of some sort, which conveys title to real estate.

However, its title is less important than the content.
Briefly, in most states, a document is construed as a deed, as long as...
1. Parties are properly identified -- who is the grantor and who is the grantee;
2. Words of conveyance are used -- such as, grant, bargain, sell or convey;
3. Receipt of some consideration is acknowledged -- such as, $10 in hand paid;
4. Unit(s) is adequately described - # week, # unit, 'x' condominiun per ...;
5. Any warranties or exceptions listed -- taxes and MF's for current year;
6. Signed and witnessed. Some require the buyer to sign, others do not;
7. To be recordable, also notarized (acknolweged).

If in doubt, consult an attorney licensed to practice in the state where the property is located. [BTW, I am not].
