One significant limitation of a Transfer on Death deed (TODD) in New York is that it does not apply to cooperative apartments. According to RPL § 424(1)(e), the term “property” refers to "real property" that can be transferred upon the owner’s death. This means coop owners need to consider other estate planning tools.
