Questions answered? Let's get started!
The personal representative's deed of distribution is a fiduciary instrument used in probate proceedings as evidence that a distributee has succeeded to the decedent's interest in real property ( 524.3-908). A personal representative, who may also be referred to as either an executor or administrator, is the fiduciary appointed to manage the decedent's estate.
After Minnesota Conveyancing Blanks Form 10.5.1, use this deed to make a distribution of real property from an individual personal representative (as opposed to a business entity personal representative) with no warranty.
See Minnesota Courts General Practice Rule 410 for requirements for transfers of real estate, and contact a lawyer with questions regarding estate administration and deeds of distribution in Minnesota.

It was a very easy to use application. I can only give it four stars because I have yet to receive confirmation from the county that my application was acceptable, ie., format, font, etc. I believe it will be fine.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I needed to file an affidavit of succession. I downloaded the forms and filled in the blanks. The instructions and example sheet were very helpful. I got the paper recorded with the county today and all went smoothly. Good product.

Could not give me any deed history prior to 1986, when our company bought the property, so this was a bust.
Thank you for your feedback April. Have a great day.
