A support deed is a type of deed, which is a written instrument used to convey land or property. At common law, any written instrument that is signed, sealed, and delivered and that conveys some interest in property is considered a deed. A support deed is a deed that is used to provide financial support to a person or organization.
For example, a parent may use a support deed to provide financial support to their child. The support deed would outline the terms of the financial support, such as the amount and frequency of payments. Another example is a support deed used by a charitable organization to provide financial support to a person in need.
These examples illustrate how a support deed is used to convey financial support, rather than land or property.
