Questions answered? Let's get started!
An affidavit of trustee contains sworn statements made by a trustee and relating to a specific transaction involving real property contained by the trust. The affidavit of trustee for a testamentary trust is codified at Minn. Stat. 501C.1014, Subd. 2.
A testamentary trust is a trust created by a will that takes effect upon the death of a testator. The affidavit of trustee for a testamentary trust, then, references the name of the trust and the date of the will under which it was created, as well as the decedent's name and date of death. It also references the instrument granting the trusteeship, including the date and place of recording.
The affidavit must contain a full legal description of the property subject to the transaction for which the affidavit is presented. It references the trustee and other party involved in the transaction and offers proof that the required number of trustees are entering the transaction and that the trustees are authorized under the decedent's will to act on the title to the real property held in the trust, and that there are no trust amendments that limit the power of the trustees.
The affiant confirms that the trust has not terminated and that the trust instrument has not been revoked, or that, if the trust has terminated, the transaction involving the real property is made pursuant to the provisions of the trust. If the trust is under court supervision, the affidavit provides the name and location of the court.
The affidavit of trustee must be signed by an acting trustee in the presence of a notary public and may be recorded separately or as an attachment to a certificate of trust under Minn. Stat. 501C.1013. Submit the instrument for recording with the county recorder, or registrar of titles in the case of registered land, in the county in which the real property described in the affidavit is situated.
Consult a lawyer with questions regarding affidavits of trustee or Minnesota trust law in general, as each situation is unique and trust law can quickly become complex.

We had hoped, as this was direct through our State recorder's office, State-specific data would be pre-filled in. Also there is no help when transferring the home title from a Revocable Trust to the living Trustee and new spouse (no example given, no help for which code to use). And the example doesn't match the prior deed revision format submitted by our attorney. So, not the best experience. We may have to get an attorney involved...what we were hoping to avoid
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

THIS SERVICE IS DIFFICULT TO USE AND TROUBLESOME, IN MY PROFESSIOBAL OPINION; a true NUGHTMARE! As a Title / Petroleum Land Professional (Landman), I use a wide variert of online title research tools and services. Mist are EXTREMELY COMPREHENSIVE, and relatively easy to perform one’s research. I am beginning to beliece that there is no search intrrfaxe here; just a long list of instructions full of circular references that simply tuns the researcher around and around to the same pages repeatedly. This service takes users NOWHERE. Good luck to those seeking to waste their time reading a vast set of redundant words and NO INTERFACE FOR CREATING OR EXECUTING AN AXTUAL SEARCH.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're genuinely sorry to hear about the difficulties you faced while using our service. As a Title / Petroleum Land Professional, your experience is invaluable to us, and we regret that our website did not meet your expectations.
We are committed to making the necessary changes to enhance our platform and provide a better experience for all users, including professionals like yourself.
