I'm filling out a preliminary change of ownership report for transfering a house to my father and I had a few questions based on the form
Feel free to ask your specific questions about the form. I'll do my best to guide you.
In part * of the form, how do I fill it out if my transfer is considered a gift
In Part * of the Preliminary Change of Ownership Report (PCOR), if the transfer is considered a gift, here's how you generally fill it out:
- "Type of transfer": Check the box for "Gift."
- "Reason for transfer": Indicate it’s a gift (e.g., "Transfer to family member as a gift").
- Other details: Fill out any additional relevant information about the parties involved.
Make sure to review instructions for your specific county or consult a local tax assessor’s office if you're unsure.

Well part * is asking about the purchase price and terms of sale
Case Rating: *
If the transfer is a gift, you can typically write "*" or "N/A" for the purchase price and terms of sale in Part *. Since no money is exchanged, there's no purchase price. Double-check with your county tax assessor for specific instructions.

So for a. Total purchase price. I can write down N/A? B. Cash down payment or value of trade or exchange excluding closing costs. I can write down N/A again? C. First deed of trust @____% interest for ____ years. Do I leave it blank? E. Was an improvement bond or other public financing assumed by the buyer? Do I checkbox no since I have no idea what they are even talking about? Can I just leave this entire section blank?
Case Rating: *
- A. Total purchase price: You can write "N/A" since it’s a gift and there’s no purchase price.
- B. Cash down payment or value of trade/exchange: "N/A" is fine for a gift.
- C. First deed of trust: Leave it blank if there’s no loan involved.
- E. Improvement bond or public financing: Check "No" if none applies. Don't leave it blank.
Make sure your local tax assessor doesn’t have specific additional instructions.

Question G has checkboxes for: the property was purchased: *) through real estate brøker *) direct from seller *) from family member *) other. Technically there was no sale so do I just not fill it out at all?
Case Rating: *
For Question G, since there was no sale and this is a gift transfer, check "Other" and write "Gift – no sale" in the space provided. Avoid leaving it blank, as that could lead to questions or delays in processing. Always confirm with your local tax assessor if you're unsure.

Question c in part * is asking if a manufactured home is included in purchase price. What does that mean? And how do I answer it?
Case Rating: *
This question is asking whether the property being transferred includes a manufactured home as part of the total purchase price. Since your transfer is a gift and there’s no purchase price, you can typically answer “No” or write “N/A.” Double-check with the county assessor if needed.

But what does manufactured home mean?
Case Rating: *
A manufactured home is a type of housing that is built in a factory and transported to a site for placement. These homes are constructed according to federal standards (HUD Code) and are different from traditional site-built homes or mobile homes.

Back to question g. Should i check the family member relationship box and write down the relationship or is it not needed if i checked other - no sale.
Case Rating: *
If you check "Other - no sale" and write "Gift - no sale," you generally don't need to check the "family member relationship" box. However, confirming with your county assessor’s office is a good idea to ensure completeness.
