| − | Transfer on Death Deeds or "TOD Deeds" have been available in Missouri by statute since 1989. They are sometimes titled as "Beneficiary Deeds". A TOD Deed, even after recorded, is of no effect until the grantor is deceased. It can therefore be rescinded at any time. It should be noted that these are not the same as Ladybird Deeds in which the transfer is made but the grantor reserves rights to dispose of the property during their lifetime.

| − | Because a Transfer on Death Deed does not create any present insurable interest in real estate, it is likely that the drafting of such a deed by a title insurance agent would be considered in the unauthorized practice of law.
