A personal representative of a testate estate is someone named in the decedent's will to administer the estate.

The personal representative's (PR) deed of distribution for a testate estate, under 33 M.R.S. 775-3-B, is a fiduciary instrument used to convey real property from an estate to a successor in interest entitled to the distribution, as set forth in the decedent's will. The PR deed conveys interest without any implied covenants of title (33 M.R.S. 771).

In addition to meeting the standard content requirements for real estate conveyancing documents, PR deeds must reference information regarding the relevant probate case. Deeds of distribution are exempt from real estate transfer taxes in Maine.

Consult a lawyer with questions about Maine personal representative's deeds or with other inquiries related to the probate process.

Forms easy to download but experienced problems trying to type in my information into the forms. Then when I went to print a form, Adobe wanted to charge me for printing. I ended up printing the blank forms and then filling them out manually.

Well worth the $20.00 for the Transfer on Death Deed, if you are willing to do the leg work to notarize and record the deed. Money well spent and money well saved. The value is in the short, bullet type instructions and State specific forms and requirements.

Special Warranty Deed I can't seem to type all my info in the blank spaces. It won't allow me to type any more. Maybe you should consider either allowing typists to type more (leaving more space) or allowing more room to type more.
