Questions answered? Let's get started!
The laws governing Missouri probate proceedings are codified at Chapters 472-475 of the Missouri Revised Statutes.
The personal representative's deed of distribution is a fiduciary instrument recorded as evidence that a distributee has succeeded to the decedent's interest in real property. A personal representative, who may alternately be referred to as either an executor or an administrator, is the person appointed by the Probate Division of the Circuit Court to manage the decedent's estate.
Use a deed of distribution to quitclaim the decedent's interest in real estate. By operation of law, the decedent's heirs automatically succeed to the decedent's interest, but a deed of distribution is recorded alongside the decedent's will, if applicable, to maintain an accurate chain of title. The PR's deed must meet all state and local standards for content and format. It also makes reference to the deceased owner and the probate case, and might require supporting documents such as an official copy of the death certificate.
Consult an attorney licensed in the State of Missouri with questions about personal representative's deeds or any other issue related to probate.

I was looking for something this website does not offer. Very dissapointed.
Sorry to hear that. We do hope you found what you were looking for elsewhere.

A suggestion: Include instructions on how to add your spouse to the deed, rather than transferring completely to a third party
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. Adding a spouse to a deed is a common need, and suggestions like yours help us identify where additional guidance would be useful. We’ll take this into consideration as we continue improving our resources.

It was easy to download the form I wanted BUT there were 2 other options listed for "open/download." I didn't want to risk more charges for something I couldn't determine I needed so I passed them up. There were a few others listed with the option to "view" so I did that, without down-loading, and there were no additional charges. I would've liked that opportunity for 2 others that didn't offer "view" so maybe deeds.com missed a sale?
Thank you for your feedback Linda. All the documents available for download in your account are included with your payment, no additional charges.

I'm not too bright and I made a mess of things when I tried to create my own deed. It was lucky that I found the forms here after so many of my personal failures. It's good that the pros know what they are doing.
Such kind words Michael, thank you.

My E-deed was not excepted by the county, so I had to snail mail the documents to the recorders office. Will probably not use this site again, as it did not fulfill my purpose, but would recommend to those who do not have complicated forms.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Very easy & efficient to use! I would have had to drive an hour to the county office. So glad this worked instead! You should advertise more....if I hadn't done research I would never have known about your service.
Thank you!

Could have had Clerk's certification of mailing form after it is recorded. Not fatal, but I did have to resort to reading the statute as well.
Thank you!

Sign up process was fine. The search could be refined a bit to make it easier. Rather than being presented with a large number of fields and trying to figure out, it say street suffice (Drive, Street, Lane) are needed and with what spelled out, what abbreviated it would be nice to have them presented as questions with examples. The $30 price point of r a deed is way too high for me as an appraiser. This is why I didn't complete the transaction.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
