You must transfer the ownership by deed of a gift which requires the same signatures and witnesses as a deed but no consideration is required of that other to render the transaction enforceable

Ownership of land is transferred deed. The owner executes a deed in exchange for the consideration paid by the purchaser. The deed must be recorded in the land records immediately in order to notify the world there is a new owner.

A prudent purchaser will arrange to have the title to the land examined by a professional before handing over the consideration. That way any title defects or encumbrances will be disclosed and the seller will need to resolve them before the purchaser takes title.
