Questions answered? Let's get started!
When a Vermont will names a bank or trust company as executor, the deed that carries out a probate sale takes a corporate shape: the grantor is the corporation itself, acting solely as executor of the estate, one authorized officer signs on its behalf, and the notary certificate records two layers of representation in a single acknowledgment. This Vermont executor deed form recites exactly that configuration, a corporate executor conveying estate real property under a license to sell from the Probate Division of the Superior Court. Deeds of this kind are often searched as a fiduciary deed, an estate deed, or an executor's deed.
A deed that runs on probate authority
Vermont channels an executor's sale of real estate through the Probate Division. Under 14 V.S.A. § 1651, the court grants a license to sell when a sale appears necessary or beneficial, and a certified copy of the license or order of sale is recorded in the land records of the town or city where the property lies. A will that expressly grants a power of sale feeds the same channel: section 1651(10) directs the court to issue the license without notice or hearing for property subject to the testamentary power, with an exception for a dwelling house in which the surviving spouse or an heir, devisee, or legatee is residing. The deed then draws its force from 14 V.S.A. § 1652, which makes the deed of an executor holding a certified copy of the license or order valid to convey the real estate authorized to be sold. The form's third section cites the license by date and by its land-records recording reference, so the deed and its authority read together in the record.
One officer signature, two layers of representation
The form recites one corporate executor as grantor: the corporation's name, organizational character, and principal office address, followed by its capacity as executor of the named estate. The operative section states that the corporation acts solely in its fiduciary capacity and not in its individual corporate capacity. The signature block carries the corporation's name and a single signature line for the authorized officer, with printed name, title, and date beneath, and the certificate that follows is the representative-capacity acknowledgment short form of 26 V.S.A. § 5368(2), printed with the statute's own captions for the officer's name, the type of authority, and the party on whose behalf the record was executed. The certificate also carries the printed-name and commission-number lines that 26 V.S.A. § 5367 describes for a paper certificate completed without an official stamp. An estate administered by an individual executor or by an administrator presents a different signature and recital pattern than the corporate configuration this form recites.
A covenant sized to the fiduciary's role
A corporate executor sells property it never owned in its own right, so the deed carries a limited fiduciary covenant rather than general warranty covenants. The grantor covenants that it holds the probate authority recited in the deed and that it has neither done nor suffered any act to encumber the property while serving as executor, and it warrants title only against claims arising by, through, or under the executor. The deed conveys the estate and interest the decedent held at death, subject to the matters listed in its encumbrances section.
Recording at the town clerk's counter
Vermont records land instruments municipally, so the completed deed goes to the clerk of the town or city where the property is located, at $15.00 per page under 32 V.S.A. § 1671, together with the recorded certified copy of the probate license. Under 32 V.S.A. § 9608, the clerk cannot record a deed evidencing a transfer of title unless a completed Vermont Property Transfer Tax Return, Form PTT-172, and the Act 250 certificate accompany it. The transfer tax falls on the transferee at 1.25 percent of value, plus the 0.22 percent clean water surcharge of 32 V.S.A. § 9602a, with a reduced rate on the first $200,000 of a principal-residence purchase.
The download prepares one complete recording-ready instrument and contains the fillable executor deed form, a completed example showing the document filled in for a realistic Washington County estate sale, and a plain-language guide that walks through every numbered section, the probate license requirement, the representative-capacity acknowledgment, and the recording package. The materials are informational and are not legal advice; a Vermont attorney can address how these rules operate on a specific estate.

This is an extremely user friendly site! I had been searching the internet for days for the proper Gift Deed document. I had no idea that my state, the great state of Mississippi had their own site. I am truly looking forward to using this site for additional available documents. Many more blessings to the creator of this site! Keep them coming! Thank You!

Customer service was poor. I felt like I had to debate the representative to provide guidance and assistance. They acted as though I knew the process, the documents involved, etc. At the same time, they asked me to confirm which documents or at least pages needed to be filed. I was leaning of Deeds.com for their expertise.
Thank you!

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

I was informed that a quit Claim Deed that I had submitted, did not meet county requirements. I ordered the correct form and was surprised that the form included instructions and a sample "completed" form for me to follow. I found it al very helpful. Thank you !!!
Thank you!

Death of JT form was excellent. You have the best documents out there. I wish I could have read the sample just so I knew my information was entered correctly. Real problem is County wants a bar code on documents to get recorded. Now? Need four deed forms so the expense starts to be prohibitive. I would rather pay more and get multiple access.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

its a bit confusing for a novice computer user. I would prefer to print out the forms, fill them out on paper, then attach them to an email to discuss the accuracy of the forms with a friend, and then take the completed forms to the County office to be recorded
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
