Questions answered? Let's get started!

The personal representative's (PR) deed of sale is a fiduciary instrument used in probate proceedings to convey real property from an estate to a purchaser. 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.

Formatted after Minnesota Uniform Conveyancing Blanks Form 10.5.3, use this deed to convey the decedent's real property from an individual PR to an individual purchaser when a necessary partition among multiple beneficiaries cannot be conveniently made, to facilitate payment of the estate's debts, or as directed by the decedent's will. The deed carries 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 personal representative's deeds of sale in Minnesota.

Your product package was thorough and I am the one who does not know how to use or begin to be interactive with a computer. I wish I had learned long ago....ok your directions appear to be clear but when you are not familiar to the words.....it can and is difficult.....I downloaded the forms and completed them by hand/pen.....I just hope it will be acceptable to the recorder....Thank you

My county accessors office recommended this site. My Uncle passed away and did not leave a will and I needed to have his deed transferred into my name. I was able to do it using the sample Deeds.com provided. I used it as a guide to fill out the paperwork that I printed off of the Deeds.com site. I had no problem when I went to the county and turned in the paperwork and the clerk said everything looked great.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience Lori. We are deeply sorry for your loss and understand how challenging managing affairs can be during such a difficult time. It's heartening to hear that our resources were helpful to you in transferring your uncle's deed into your name.

We strive to make complex processes more accessible and manageable, and your feedback affirms the value of our work. Knowing that the county assessor's office recommended us and that the clerk found everything in order with your paperwork is incredibly gratifying.

No problem whatsoever navigating the forms. I hope the filing is this easy.

Reply from Staff

Thanks, Ernest! We’re glad the forms were easy to navigate. Recording in Virginia Beach City is typically straightforward, but it’s always a good idea to confirm any local requirements with the clerk before filing.

Very prompt and good resource. Unfortunately, I am unable to find a form for the Quitclaim Deed for an individual to a UNA, so I do not know how to proceed.

Reply from Staff

Thank you for the kind words, Judith — we’re glad you found the site helpful. Quitclaim deed forms are offered for common ownership scenarios, and some arrangements are not available as pre-made templates. If you have questions about the forms currently offered on the site, our support team can help clarify what is and isn’t available.

I really like this site and it's actually recommended by many County Recorders. I especially like that there's not join up/monthly fee. It's easy to use and the customer support is outstanding. They're very helpful and patient.
