Questions answered? Let's get started!

In South Carolina, title to a decedent's real property devolves at death to the decedent's heirs (intestate estates) and devisees (testate estates) (S.C. Code 62-3-101). Though title passes by operation of law, the estate is still subject to administration in probate. Probate is the legal process of settling the decedent's estate and distributing assets to those entitled to receive it. A PR may not make distribution of the estate without first obtaining permission from the court.

The personal representative (PR) of the estate executes a deed of distribution following an order for distribution from the court to distribute real property from a decedent's estate. The deed of distribution (Form 400ES) evidences the legal succession of title of the decedent's interest in real property and releases the PR's powers over the subject property.

The deed, given under 62-3-907, 62-3-908 is "conclusive evidence that the distributee has succeeded to the interest of the estate...against all persons interested in the estate" (62-3-908).

Apart from meeting all state and local standards for documents affecting title to real property, the deed of distribution must identify the reason for the transfer (i.e., a will, laws of intestacy, a family agreement, disclaimer, or order), and name each beneficiary and the percent of the decedent's interest in the subject property he or she is inheriting.

The deed of distribution is signed by the acting PR in the presence of a notary public and two witnesses before recording in the Register of Deeds' office of the county where the subject property is situated. A certified copy should be delivered to the probate court.

Consult a lawyer with questions regarding probate and deeds of distribution in South Carolina, as each situation is unique.

Excellent find (Deeds.com) from a google search, first hit. This was exactly what we were looking for. It also got me to upgrade Adobe to be able to fill in the forms. Will be back for follow up as needed, but I think I got everything we needed in the first downloads. Appreciate a well done site like yours. Thanks John

Was working with a notary client that need to do a deed. We got on this site, ordered the blank forms, he filled them out and we printed them so he could sign. Really clean forms, easy to understand and complete in a hurry. I will be letting all my clients know about this site.

Ordered the forms, completed them, had them notarized, then erecorded all in under 2 hours. Would have been faster but had to wait for the bank to open for notary. Might try the online notary next time. Fantastic experience.

Five stars rating for sure. All so easy to download and print from your home computer. I live in rural Arizona and have no store to run in to like the lady at the County office told me, so Deeds.com is the best. Brenda Y.

I was very impressed with the speed at which information was retrieved on my very first search. Unfortunately, the county we were looking for is behind times and has not digitized its information. I will be using Deeds.Com again and appreciate that I was not charged for no information being returned back. Thank You David S
