Questions answered? Let's get started!
In Colorado, the person approved or appointed by the probate court to administer a decedent's estate is called a personal representative. The personal representative has a fiduciary duty to settle the decedent's estate, including devising real property to rightful heirs or distributing real property pursuant to the laws of intestate succession set forth in the Colorado Probate Code.
Use the personal representative's deed of distribution to transfer real property to a devisee (someone designated in a will to receive the decedent's property) or an heir (a person, including the surviving spouse, entitled under statutes of intestate succession to receive the decedent's property).
The personal representative's deed does not warrant against title defects preceding the appointment of the personal representative.
Additional documents, including letters of administration or letters testamentary, may be required. Consult an attorney with questions regarding the probate process and personal representative's deeds in Colorado.

Best Way EVER to record a warranty deed! It was nice to not have to drive anywhere and find the facility closed or "unable to process due to covid19 and buildings being closed". The correspondence between me and deeds.com was very timely in our back and forth email correspondence, and the processing was all finished in a timely manner. Totally worth the extra $15 that I paid in addition to the recording fee. I would use this again and again. My time and the efficiency of the job completed is worth the money.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

I found Deeds to be okay except I was hoping it would give me a title or deed to my house if I would have known I would have just got a warranty deed I probably would not have pay the money but it's still worth it
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I got a blank, a sample and detailed instructions, I'm happy. If the recorder's office had a form as they like to see, with your name as they like to see, and the property name as they like to see, no one would ever pay a lawyer for this but a little time to look up the exact names and this package you're all set. I recommend this because, while it isn't difficult, making a mistake could be very bad so getting the details right for a particular county is well worth the cost.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Really good product, included guide to filling out forms. Totally pleased with that part. Customer service however was terrible. Did not hear back after I sent two emails. The site signed me up but after I was accepted they would not allow me to download a form, with the notation my account was closed. Had to use another email. Had problems with that. Finally got off of site and went to a login site that allowed me to download the forms. If you can get past setting up your account, it is fantastic site. Nice price compared to alternatives. Also I recieved two validation codes. Have no idea why they were sent.
Thank you!

The deeds.com website is incredibly easy to navigate and the nearly instantaneous chat function allowed me to quickly correct an entry error I made uploading a document. The day after enrolling and uploading the document I had a copy of the document properly filed. Very efficient; very effective.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
