move domain to another account

I am trying to move a domain to my other account. I set it up using my work account but need it to be with personal account.
I was going to delete it, then I saw that I could no longer get that same domain again.
Please advise. Thank you.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hey there!
The idea here is to add your personal account as an “Admin” on your site (This can be done under My Site ->People ->Add), and then pass ownership of the domain over to the personal account (Admin). I did some digging and found that this article should guide you through accomplishing this:

I hope that’s helpful!

Hi seaatgsu,
There are no domain purchases on the account you are logged in to. Which domain would you like to transfer?
Once I know more, I’ll take a look.

Hello,
The one with an individual’s name – starts with R. I haven’t started building the site yet. I just want to keep that domain and move it to my personal account. I did not purchase the domain – just created it.
Thanks!

Hi seaatgsu,
I just want to keep that domain and move it to my personal account.
I see what you mean now. When you’re ready, the site can be moved to your personal account using these steps:

At the moment, that site doesn’t have a custom domain upgrade, so the last step does not apply (Transferring a blog with a domain upgrade).
Let me know if you have any questions.
