Ohio Fiduciary Deed for Executors and Administrators

Probate is the legal process of settling and distributing a decedent's estate according to the terms of a probated will or laws of intestate succession. In the context of estate administration, a fiduciary is either an executor (when named in a will) or an administrator (when the decedent dies without a will or does not name an executor) assigned by the court of common pleas to administer the decedent's estate.

If the estate's assets are insufficient to pay debts, the fiduciary may need to sell the decedent's property. Fiduciaries must obtain the court's permission to sell assets from the estate, unless authorized or directed by the decedent's will.

In Ohio, executors and administrators use fiduciary deeds to convey real property from an estate to a purchaser pursuant to a court order. A fiduciary deed is a statutory form (R.C. 5302.09) containing fiduciary covenants that the grantor is the duly appointed, qualified, and acting fiduciary, and that he or she is authorized to make the sale and conveyance of the within described real property. Additionally, the grantor covenants with the grantee that in the proceedings of the sale, he or she has complied with statutory requirements (5302.10).

A fiduciary deed names the executing fiduciary's as grantor, and identifies the county and case number in which the decedent's estate is opened in probate. The deed states the amount of consideration the grantee is paying for the transfer of title, and titles the property in the name and manner of vesting of the grantee.

Deeds in Ohio require a recital of the grantor's source of title, including the prior instrument volume and page numbers. A full legal description of the subject parcel is required. Any restrictions on the property should also be noted. The executing fiduciary must sign the deed in the presence of a notary public before recording in the county where the subject property is located.

The information provided here is not a substitute for legal advice. Consult an attorney licensed in the State of Ohio with questions regarding fiduciary deeds, as each situation is unique.

As soon as payment was received the forms were downloaded, printed and were useable. The guide was helpful and I was able to get my forms filled out and filed with no problem here in Linn County Oregon. I would recommend the site to anyone.

One stop shopping for your Deed needs. Downloaded the forms and filled them out with ease following the step by step instructions. Saved me hundreds of dollars for not having to hire an attorney to do the exact same thing.

The website worked fine and I would have been happy to pay the extra money except the deed I needed was "not available". Ended up calling the courthouse anyway.

Creating my enhanced lifde estate deed was rather easy but I am not happy. After buying the 3 form package for about $29 and crating my legal form... was not happy with your disclaimer than you cannot guarantee the form will meet required legal standards. I was convinced you all knew what you're doing since the forms are supposedly specific to Polk county, Florida.

Reply from Staff

Herbert, thank you for your feedback.

Our deed forms are prepared to meet the statutory and recording requirements for the state listed, including common formatting and content requirements used by county recorders.

The disclaimer exists because we are not acting as your attorney and cannot evaluate each customer’s specific facts, property history, or intended use of the document. For that reason, we cannot guarantee that a document will meet every possible legal need or circumstance.

Many customers successfully prepare and record their deeds using these materials, but anyone needing legal advice about their particular situation should consult a licensed attorney.

Great do it yourself forms (I used the Quitclaim deed). If you think you're going to need a lot of hand holding you might consider hiring an attorney. The guide and general information provided by deeds.com will help if you have some idea of what you are doing and you are willing to research a little. Your mileage may vary but for me, this was a very efficient and economical way to get my quitclaim deed done.
