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.

form worked great but was over priced for such a simple form , should be around $10 and most people could easily create this themselves.

Hi William, thank you for your review. We’re glad the form worked well for you. We understand it may seem simple on the surface, but Transfer on Death Deeds—especially in New York—require precise language and adherence to both state and county-level rules. Our forms are attorney-prepared, regularly reviewed for legal compliance, and include helpful instructions to reduce the risk of costly filing errors. We appreciate your feedback and hope the document serves its purpose smoothly.

Exactly what I needed and VERY fair price. I paid $19.97 for what a local attorney wanted $200 to do. I filled out the form using the line by line guide and filed it at the court house today. Absolutely no problems.
