PRACTICE TIP: To avoid the complications that could ensue if<br />

multiple beneficiaries, and multiple successor beneficiaries, are desired, a<br />

simple will or a living trust might be a better solution than a TODD.<br />

O. AFTER-ACQUIRED PROPERTY<br />

Should after-acquired property be included on a TODD?<br />

A TODD is not effective to transfer any interest in the real property<br />

acquired by the Grantor Owner after the date of signing the TODD unless<br />

the Grantor Owner designates in the TODD that it will apply to any<br />

interest described in the real property acquired by the Grantor Owner after<br />

signing or recording the TODD.<br />

Authority: Minn. Stat. § 507.071, Subd. 22.<br />

All the TODD forms included in the Uniform Conveyancing Blank set<br />

include a box to check to include after-acquired property. The authors<br />

recommend use of these forms. Here is a link to the Uniform TODD<br />

forms:<br />

See UCB Forms 10.8.1, 10.8.2, 10.8.3, and 10.8.4. See also 10.8.9<br />

(Clearance Certificate), and 10.8.10 (Revocation).<br />

The authors recommend checking the box because the authors cannot<br />

think of any good reason to not include after-acquired property in a<br />

TODD.<br />
