Questions answered? Let's get started!

An executor's deed is a statutory form under RIGL 34-11-12 for sales of real property from a probated estate. An executor is a court-appointed fiduciary entrusted to administer a decedent's estate. He or she is the personal representative named in the decedent's will.

Use an executor's deed to transfer title to a purchaser with implied fiduciary covenants. Executor's deeds contain covenants that the grantor is the duly qualified and acting executor of the estate, that he or she has good right and lawful authority to convey the decedent's interest in the subject property, and that he or she, in his or her capacity, has given bond as required by law and has complied in all respects with the court's decree.

In Rhode Island, the probate court must authorize sales of realty from the estate (RIGL 33-19-3). Prior to the sale, the executor files a petition for the sale of real estate with the court, which must include the reason for the sale. Valid reasons for petitioning for the sale of real property under RIGL 33-12-6 include enabling the payment of debts or facilitating efficient administration of the estate. This authority excludes sales of real property that is specifically devised by the decedent's will, unless the devisee(s) give consent to the sale. An executor with a power of sale under a will must also obtain consent to sell specifically devised real property (RIGL 33-12-6).

In addition to meeting the standard requirements for form and content of deeds in Rhode Island, the executor's deed should reflect the true consideration paid by the grantee for the grantor's interest in the realty. Rhode Island levies a real estate conveyance tax based on purchase price, to be paid by the grantor, due upon recording (RIGL 44-25-1). Submit a conveyance tax return (CVYT-1) to the Rhode Island Division of Taxation. The executor may also be asked to furnish an affidavit of residency to the buyer, unless the deed includes a statement that no withholding of tax under RIGL 44-30-71.3 is required.

The executor must sign the deed in the presence of a notary public for a valid transfer. Recording in Rhode Island is done at the municipal level in the town or city where the property is situated. Submit the completed, signed, and notarized deed, along with any supplemental documents, to the land evidence division of the town clerk in the municipality where the subject parcel is located.

The information provided here is not a substitute for legal advice. Consult an attorney licensed in the State of Rhode Island with questions regarding executor's deeds, or for any other issues related to settling an estate, as each situation is unique.

Quick and easy, but the 2MB file limit ended up causing some big headaches. Had I known the limit could be easily increased, it would have saved me a lot of time and trouble.

I filled out the Xfer on Death Deed and turned it in to the County Recorder - everything went well. I did NOT like the Huge Print over like a stamp of "DEEDS.COM" on some of the material - it just made it hard to read.

This website was very helpful in explaining what a "gift" deed is and how to execute it. I didn't want to incur legal fees for a simple transaction and this website helped me avoid that.
