As part of the probate process, a personal representative's duties include transferring a decedent's real property to those entitled to receive it. A personal representative may also sell real property in order to pay the estate's debts.
An administrator is a personal representative designated by the probate court to settle the decedent's estate when the decedent has died intestate (without a will), or has failed to name an executor in a will. Use an administrator's deed to convey fee simple title to a grantee, who is either a beneficiary, heir, or buyer).
The deed contains covenants that the grantor is qualified to act as administrator of the decedent's estate; is authorized to bargain and sell the property pursuant to the terms of the decedent's will or by order of the probate court; and will warrant and defend the grantee's title against the claims of persons by, from, or under the grantor.
