An administrator's deed is a fiduciary instrument used in estate administration to transfer real property pursuant to laws of intestate succession. An administrator is a personal representative selected by the probate court to administer a decedent's intestate estate.

Use an administrator's deed to convey interest in real property to a grantee with a special warranty. This type of warranty affirms that, while the grantor/administrator controlled the property, she never acted in a way to change the status of the title.

In addition to meeting state and local standards for real estate deeds, administrator's deeds also include details about the decedent's probate case. A court order for sale is required before a transfer can be made. Supporting documentation, such as an affidavit of real property transfer under KRS 382.135(4), is required before an administrator can record the deed in the office of the county clerk.

Contact a lawyer with questions about Kentucky administrator's deeds or other inquiries related to probate.

Amazingly easy! I absolutely love it because it is so efficient and I only have to pay for when I use it. I use to have to drive to the recorders office or to a Kiosk station. The turn-around time was really quick as well.
