Trustees use this form for a trustee to transfer real estate out of a Florida living trust or land trust, or in a foreclosure situation. It meets the same content requirements as a standard warranty or quitclaim deed, but also includes relevant details about the trust, and any other information needed for the transfer.
This type of conveyance is named for the person using the form -- the trustee -- who stands in for the beneficiary of the trust and holds title to the property. Trustees act according to the terms of the trust, and under the direction of the trustor, also called the settlor, grantor, or donor (the person or entity who transferred the assets into the trust). In some situations, the trustor may also serve as the trustee. Note that when signing trustee's deeds, the trustee must identify him/herself as trustee and include the full name of the trust.
After the trustee executes the form, record it in the real property records of the county where the land is situated to provide public notice of the change in ownership.
(Florida Trustees Deed Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

I live in another city and state and your service allowed me to get what I needed done. in a matter of a few hours from the time I submitted my package for filing, within an hour. I received noted and stamped confirmation from the county clerks office the document was now on file with them. I highly recommend Deeds.com and will be utilizing your online services for any future legal documentation.

Bottom line - it was certainly worth the $21 (+-?) I paid for the form and instructions, etc.
Admittedly the form is a little inflexible in terms of editing for readability but I understand that offering greater flexibility would likely make theft more likely. So I'm happy with what I got. One suggestion - add more info about what's required in the "Source of Title" section.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
