To transfer real estate into a specific series in Wyoming, you must use a Quitclaim Deed or a Warranty Deed. In Wyoming, the “Grantee” (the receiver) must be specifically identified to ensure the property is placed inside the correct liability “silo.”

​If you do not name the series specifically on the deed, you risk the property being owned by the “Master” trust, which exposes it to the liabilities of your other series.

​1. The Legal Description of the Grantee

​When you fill out your deed, the “Grantee” section should be phrased exactly like this:

“[Your Name], as Trustee of the Gonen Statutory Trust – [Insert Series Name/Number], a series of a Wyoming statutory trust.”

​3. Important Wyoming Requirements

​To make this transfer “official” and maintain your liability protection, you must follow these Wyoming-specific rules:

  • Statement of Consideration: Wyoming requires a separate Statement of Consideration form to be filed with the County Clerk alongside the deed. This is a non-public document used for tax assessments.
  • Recording Fees: You must record this deed with the County Clerk in the county where the property is located. Fees vary by county (usually ~$15.00 for the first page).
  • Notarization: The Grantor’s signature must be notarized.
  • Water Rights: If the land has water rights, you may need to file an additional “Change of Ownership” form with the Wyoming State Engineer’s Office.

​4. The “Tax Note”

​Since you are likely transferring property from yourself to your own trust, this is generally considered a “mere change in form” and should not trigger a reassessment of property taxes or a “transfer tax” (which Wyoming does not have). However, you should notify your title insurance company to ensure your policy remains in effect for the new Series owner.

Would you like me to draft a “Notice to Tenant” or a “Management Agreement” for this new series if you plan to rent out this property?
