California Condominium Unit Grant Deed — Unit + Common Area Interest (Editable Word Template)
A California grant deed built for condominiums. It conveys the unit together with everything that must go with it. Editable Word template, current for 2026.
WHY A CONDO DEED IS DIFFERENT
A condo isn't just the unit. In California, a transfer of a condominium unit automatically includes its undivided interest in the common area and the owner's association membership (Civil Code § 4630). This deed describes all of it properly.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
- Recorder-ready first page (Gov. Code § 27361.6)
- Documentary transfer tax and $75 SB 2 fee declarations, including the owner-occupier exemption
- Buyer vesting line with common examples

- Exhibit A in four parcels: the unit, the undivided common area interest, exclusive use areas (parking space, storage, patio), and easements
- Optional developer reservation for first sales (delete it on a resale)
- California all-purpose notary acknowledgment page
- Step-by-step instructions page (remove before recording)
WHO IT'S FOR
Developers closing first sales in a new condo project, condo conversions, and owners or attorneys preparing a transfer outside a title company's standard forms.
