Questions answered? Let's get started!

When people create their wills, they generally name one or more individuals to supervise the distribution of their assets. Georgia customarily uses the term "personal representative" to refer to both executors and administrators, but get more specific when it comes to conveying title to real estate. An executor is a personal representative designated in a will to manage a testate decedent's estate; an administrator is appointed by the probate court, and can be involved in either testate or intestate (without a will) processes.

During probate, the court may direct an executor to sell real property pursuant to the terms of the decedent's will, to pay the estate's debts, or to consolidate the decedent's estate for devise among multiple beneficiaries. The named personal representative uses an executor's deed to transfer real property from a testate estate. The executor's deed contains all the information required for a standard conveyance, such as a quitclaim or warranty deed, but also includes relevant details about the decedent and the probate case.

To transfer title to a buyer, record the completed executor's deed, along with any necessary supporting documents, with the real property records of the appropriate county.

Consult an attorney with questions about the executor's deed, or with any other issues related to probate in Georgia.

Your documents were very helpful. I went ahead and filled in all the info for the Release of Lien document. It was easy to do with your example. I had all the necessary info such as plot numbers, etc. for the property and everything fit nicely onto the document. It has been notorized and mailed. My grandparents' Victorian home has new owners who love it and has paid it off. Yeah!!!

Why is Dade County not listed for the Lady Bird Deed?

Reply from Staff

Because on November 13, 1997, voters changed the name of the county from Dade to Miami-Dade.

Good template that met my needs. Much better than another draft template that I found on another site. Would have been helpful if the template had been provided in a Word format instead of PDF so that I could remove the sections that are not applicable.

The website and information is fine. The proof in the pudding, of course, is whether the forms I used now will provide the results I want if the changes are challenged at some future date.

Might be adequate if I was desperate. Formatting screams amateur hour -- not a legal issue but likely to invite closer scrutiny when filed. Instructions were supposed to be county-specific but directed me to call the recorder to ask them how to fill out part of the form. Not planning to use the form and would not purchase it again. I could probably do better by uploading some examples and the original mortgage from the Recorder's website into Claude along with the transaction-specific information and asking Claude to prepare a more professional release.
