Best Answer

A deed to a property specifies who owns the property. If the property belonged to someone who has died then the property (and the deed to it) become part of the dead persons estate. What happens to the estate is determined by the dead persons will.

In view of this it is unclear what you mean by a property deed overriding a will - your question makes little sense.

Does a sheriff deed override a deed of trust?

Your question is complicated and needs a lot more detail for a more concise answer. Generally: A sheriff's deed is the result of a judgment lien. It indicates the land was actually siezed. It can create a cloud on the title to real estate even when recorded after the property has been conveyed if the conveyance was to avoid creditors. If it relates to a debt that was recorded prior to a mortgage in a state that uses deeds of trust for mortgages then it may override the deed of trust. If this refers to a conveyance deed to a trust and the trust was not drafted properly the real estate would be left exposed to creditors. If the debt predates the deed to the trust the sheriff's deed may override it. You may need to pay off the lien to remove the cloud on the title. You should have the situation reviewed by an attorney who specializes in real estate law. If the siezure was "good" the interest on the debt adds up quickly causing the pay back amount to grow. In Massachusetts the interest allowed is 12 percent.

Can you get your house back if you signed a quitclaim deed?

If you own property and execute a quitclaim deed transferring your interest. You no longer own the property. If the property is subject to a mortgage or if you made the transfer to avoid creditors you have complicated the title and created a problem for yourself but you cannot undo that deed. The grantee in that deed would need to convey their interest back to you. Transferring property that is subject to a mortgage will trigger the "due on transfer" clause. You should consult with an attorney.

How important is the deed of sale of the land?

Since a deed is the instrument of sale for real property which proves the seller's right to convey and the buyer's right of ownership, it is critical to the sale because it is the buyer's only proof of ownership. It is critical to note that ownership customarily does not pass from the seller to the buyer unless and until the deed is recorded with the clerk of the court in the jurisdiction in which the property is located.
