Missouri Personal Representative's Deed with Order for Sale ( 473.460, RSMO)

The laws governing Missouri probate proceedings are codified at Chapters 472-475 of the Missouri Revised Statutes.

A personal representative's deed pursuant to an order for sale under 473.460, RSMo is a fiduciary instrument used to transfer a decedent's interest in real property to a purchaser. 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.

473.460, RSMo, outlines the purposes for which a personal representative may sell real property from the estate with the Court's authorization, including to pay claims against the estate; pay allowance to a surviving spouse and minor children of the decedent; pay a legacy given by the decedent's will; pay administrative expenses and taxes due on the estate or taxes assessed on transfers from the estate; and for any other purpose deemed in the best interest of the estate. Real property may also be sold to enable distribution of the estate.

Consult an attorney licensed in the State of Missouri with questions about personal representative's deeds or any other issues related to probate.

I thought the forms were reasonably priced, the instructions included in the packet were thorough, and the examples helpful. Thank you for the additional CDR forms too. I contacted the Recorder's office via email with a question and Jennifer Bowser answered promptly. Job well done! However, when I delivered the deed and Real Property Transfer Declaration to the Clerk's office in Lafayette, the clerk was unfamiliar with the Declaration document being submitted and it took some time to convince her to submit the form without charging the recording fee. She even tried to phone the recorder's office for clarification, but no one answered. There then was an additional form at that office that I had to complete called Recording Request/Transmittal Form. I would suggest including that form with instructions in your on-line packet to speed up the process when a Deed is delivered to the County Clerk's satellite office. I do not expect every clerk to know all the particulars of recording requirements but a little knowledge wouldn't hurt.

Bottom line - it was certainly worth the $21 (+-?) I paid for the form and instructions, etc. Admittedly the form is a little inflexible in terms of editing for readability but I understand that offering greater flexibility would likely make theft more likely. So I'm happy with what I got. One suggestion - add more info about what's required in the "Source of Title" section.

I was on several sites but this was the easiest and cost effective. No bait and switch like on several sites where you get a "free trial" and then they started billing you monthly for legal services. Excellent.

Response was timely, even though unsuccessful in locating a requested deed. Deeds very courteously and professionally cancelled my order and cancelled its charge to my credit card.

It was nice to find a form to use for leaving my house without having my kids deal with Probate Court. The price was a lot cheaper than paying for a Lawyer to set up a transfer of ownership.
