Accession Deed: Definition, Terms, Example
Jump to Section
What is an Accession Deed?
An accession deed is a document that transfers ownership of an entire parcel of land to another person. It can also transfer property from one entity (such as a corporation) to another (for example, from the corporation's president to the company itself).
An accession deed is often used in business transactions such as mergers and acquisitions. If a business considers adding more property or assets to its existing holdings, it may be worth investigating what type of legal agreement will work best and how much money will need to change hands.
