Transfer or Sale of a Decedent's Real Estate in Wisconsin
At its most basic, probate means to prove a decedent's will. The term "probate," however, is frequently used to describe the legal process of estate administration, which includes intestate estate succession in addition to probating wills. Estates are called intestate when the decedent (deceased person) does not leave a will. Probate ensures that a decedent's estate is lawfully transferred pursuant to the provisions of his will or to the state's laws of intestate succession.
Property that does not transfer by means of a survivorship or beneficiary designation is subject to probate. Estates requiring formal or informal probate involve the appointment of a personal representative (PR), a fiduciary appointed by the court to administer the estate in accordance with Wisconsin's Probate Code, located at Chs. 851-882 of the Wisconsin Statutes. This article will focus on informal administration; formal administration may be necessary depending on such factors as specifications in the will and whether all persons having an interest in the estate agree on the administration. Consult a lawyer with questions.
The first step to administration is opening the estate by submitting a petition for administration in the circuit court of the county where the decedent resided at the time of death. If there is a will, it must be delivered to the probate registrar. If the testator (person making a will) has filed the will with the court for safekeeping, the court shall contact the person named in the will to administer the estate (Wis. Stat. Sec. 856.03). Upon petition, the court will set a time for proving the will (if applicable), determining heirship, and appointing a personal representative (Sec. 856.11).
To evidence the authority of a PR to act on behalf of the estate, the court grants Domiciliary Letters to the qualifying person. The person named in the decedent's will has priority in appointment, followed by any person interested in the estate or the person's nominee, under discretion of the court (Sec. 856.21). With the issuance of letters, the PR is granted the general powers and duties of a personal representative under Ch. 857, Wisconsin Statutes, to administer the estate as required by law.
Among the PR's powers is the power to "sell, mortgage or lease any property in the estate without notice, hearing or court order" under Sec. 860.01, unless restricted or prohibited by the decedent's will (Sec. 860.11). The beneficiary of property specifically devised to him by the decedent must join in the sale of such property (Sec. 860.11(2)). If the will contains any such limitations as to the sale of real property, yet the PR is unable to pay allowances, expenses of administration, or claims on the estate within those limitation, he can petition the court for sale (Sec. 860.11(4)).
To sell or transfer an interest in real estate, the PR executes a personal representative's deed. A PR deed passes title to the named grantee free and clear of the rights of creditors that have been filed and allowed in the estate under Ch. 859 (Sec. 860.05). The PR has no statutory power to make warranties in any sale of real estate binding on the PR or on the estate (Sec. 860.07). The deed conveys all the estate and interest in the property the decedent had immediately prior to his death, and all the estate and any interest in the property the PR has since acquired.
A lawful deed should meet the requirements for content established at Sec. 706.02, identifying the parties and the land involved, the interest conveyed, and any conditions. The grantor must sign and have the deed properly acknowledged under Sec. 706.06. All deeds in Wisconsin require the name of the person who drafted the instrument and full legal description of the property and meet statutory and local standards for formatting recorded instruments (Sec. 59.43).
Record the deed in the office of the register of deeds in each county where the property is situated. Conveyances of real property offered for recording must be accompanied by receipt of an electronic real estate transfer return or note an exemption on the face of the document 706.05(12)). Exemptions to the real estate transfer fee are codified at Sec. 77.25, and include transfers by will, descent, or survivorship (Sec.77.25(11)).

I'm transferring a property into a trust and ordered the QuitClaim Deed. Everything was pretty straight forward and user friendly. However, the Additional Information/Instructions for the Preliminary Change of Ownership Report skips from Section "I" to "M" and does not address "K". It would have been very helpful to have an explanation of the difference between the three options in that section. Thank you.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I liked getting the forms but I was charged twice for some reason. I'm not sure what happened with that. Can you reimburse me? Thank you. Lanette
Thank you for your feedback Lanette. In review, it looks like your first payment was declined, second one was approved and processed. What you are seeing is one payment and a hold placed by your financial institution for the declined attempt. We are not sure why they do this but the hold usually falls off after a few day depending on their policy. If you have further questions about this you can contact your financial institution and they will explain. Have a great day.

You dont really know what your buying until after you spend the money. Cant use any of them
Thank you for your feedback. Best practice is to know what you need before purchasing. Buying legal documents should not be a exploratory endeavor. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.

Delivery of documents was instantaneous once payment is received. Thank you for that. For future clarification to potential users, Deeds.com may want to categorize the type of easement documents that are available. I was needing a 'utility easement' form and received an 'ingress/egress' form. Had I known it was an ingress/egress document, I would not have made the purchase. Outside of this issue, this site is very helpful for the average layperson to hold guardianship over personal interests.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Sign up process was fine. The search could be refined a bit to make it easier. Rather than being presented with a large number of fields and trying to figure out, it say street suffice (Drive, Street, Lane) are needed and with what spelled out, what abbreviated it would be nice to have them presented as questions with examples. The $30 price point of r a deed is way too high for me as an appraiser. This is why I didn't complete the transaction.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
