Missouri Personal Representative's Deed for an Independent Personal Representative

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

An independent personal representative's deed is a fiduciary instrument used to transfer a decedent's interest in real property to a purchaser. A personal representative (PR), 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 the personal representative's deed in independent administration when the PR is authorized to sell real estate under a power conferred by the decedent's will ( 473.457, RSMo). 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 issues related to probate.

Quick, easy, thorough, reasonable price. Much better than trying to contact a paralegal (who do not usually respond quickly, it seems)

I needed to create a deed of distribution for my probate case. The instructions as to what was needed on the caption page was lacking. Because of the lack of information I still had to have an attorney review the documents as I didn't feel confident in the instructions given.

Thank you for your review. Our deed of distribution package is designed as a strong primer to help people understand the process and prepare accurate documents. That said, probate filings can involve details that vary by court and jurisdiction.

We’re glad you sought attorney review when you weren’t completely sure—that’s exactly what we recommend. We always encourage customers to work with a qualified legal professional if they are not absolutely confident, since accuracy and acceptance are what matter most.

This would be a great form but I couldn’t tell what size the font was. Also, I didn’t know how to save it so I will have to type it all over again. I’m sure I did it incorrectly.

Finally able to print out the forms after a few tries. Honestly, I think it could have been designed a little better. I am almost 80; however, very computer savvy, but finally managed to get what I needed.
