Questions answered? Let's get started!

Use a trustee's deed to transfer real property held in an inter vivos trust (also called a living trust). This type of deed is named for the executing trustee of the living trust, who holds legal title to the real property transferred into trust by the trust's settlor, and not for the type of warranty it carries, as with other forms of conveyance. Note that this type of trustee's deed is separate from the trustee's deed used to convey real property under a deed of trust upon foreclosure.

The trustee's deed for a living trust recites the trustee's name, address, telephone number, and capacity, and includes the name of and date of the trust on behalf of which the trustee is authorized to act. In addition, it includes the grantee's name, address, telephone number, and vesting information. Trustees may produce a certification of trust under Miss. Code Ann. 91-8-1013 verifying the trustee's authority to enter into the transaction.

The form's granting language contains implied covenants "that the grantor was seized of an estate, free from incumbrance made or suffered by the grantor, except the rents and services that may be reserved, and also for quiet enjoyment against the grantor, his heirs and assigns, unless limited by express word contained in the conveyance" (Miss. Code Ann. 89-1-41).

As with all conveyances in Mississippi, the deed requires a legal description of the property subject to the conveyance. Indexing instructions may also be required. The instrument should recite the name, address, telephone number, and bar number, if applicable, of the person who prepared the document. The trustee's signature must be witnessed in the presence of a notary public for a valid transfer.

Consult a lawyer with any questions regarding trustee's deeds in Mississippi.

My rating is not a 5. Although it had good instructions, it would NOT print the whole document no matter how many times I inputted the names. I ended up writing it in to complete. I also recommend putting it on one page. I had to pay an additional fees per page and if I had to notarize it, why did I have to find 2 witnesses as well. I deserve a discount for the time I spent repeatedly putting the same data. I was trying to save money since Im on social security only. It didnt. Get it to work correctly

The experience was generally very satisfactory. I was able to fill out the Trust Deed and send it via email no problem. However, I was not able to send the filled out form of the Note. It always erased my fill-ins when it was sent. I found that very frustrating.

Reply from Staff

Thank you, Gordon. Glad the Trust Deed worked well. Issues like the one you reported with the Note can sometimes be related to how the file is opened or sent. Using Adobe Reader to fill, save, and send the form is recommended. We also pass along all feedback like this to our team to confirm there are no issues.

This package of documents from Deeds.com has been extremely helpful, particularly for one who has never needed this kind of service before and is unfamiliar with legal documents in general. It is well worth the price; I would recommend this company to anyone needing help with legal documents and information.
