Living Will Form California Free

Gifting real estate to grandchildren – do i need to add their names to the deed?
I live in California and have a property with equity. I want to gift the equity in $12,000 increments annually to my grandchildren to take advantage of the TaxPayer Relief Act tax free benefit. My grandchildren are not on the deed of the property but their parents (my daughter and her husband) are.
Q1: Can I gift property equity using the $12,000 limit the TaxPayer Relief Act offers?
Q2: Do I need to add my grandchildren’s names to the deed of the property I want to gift?
Q3: Does each $12,000 gift count against my lifetime Estate Tax Exclusion limit?
Q4: Do I need to file Gift Tax Form 709 even though the gifts are within the $12,000 limit which is tax free?
Q5: IRS literature says the Estate Tax Exclusion will be repealed in 2010 so will I have to pay taxes on the amount I gift in 2010?
Thank you!
