A Lady Bird Deed provides key advantages, including:

• Avoiding Probate: Your property transfers directly to your heirs, skipping the delays and expenses of probate.
• Maintaining Full Control: You can sell, refinance, or change beneficiaries anytime—without restrictions.
• Saving Money & Time: It simplifies estate planning and eliminates costly legal fees associated with wills and probate.

It’s a hassle-free way to protect your legacy while keeping your options open.

Yes! A Lady Bird Deed is superior to a Will for transferring real estate because it bypasses probate entirely.

Here’s the difference:

With a Lady Bird Deed, the property automatically goes to your named beneficiary. The only step required is recording the death certificate with the county.

By contrast, a Will does not automatically transfer a property and must go through probate, a court‐supervised process that can take months and involve extra legal fees before ownership is officially transferred. In Florida, about 90% of Wills end up in probate for exactly that reason.

With a Lady Bird Deed, you skip the court, delays, and added costs—making the transfer fast, straightforward, and hassle‐free.

Yes. A will does not prevent probate—over 90% of wills still go through court. A Lady Bird Deed ensures your home transfers immediately to your chosen beneficiary, without court delays or legal fees.
