How do you get a deed for land that is being given to you?
A will that transfers real property must be probated in order for title to the real estate to pass to the beneficiary legally. The beneficiary doesn't have to arrange to have a deed in their name, the probate is a public record and can be cited as the legal source of title. If the beneficiary wishes to obtain a deed in their own name that can be accomplished after the estate has been probated. It should be done by the attorney who handled the estate. The beneficiary, as the legal owner, would convey the property to a straw. The straw would convey the property back to the beneficiary and the beneficiary would become the record owner of the property in the land records. This transfer should be done under the supervision of an attorney who specializes in real estate and probate law.
Can the executor of estate use a quit claim deed to change ownership and record warranty deed when deceased parents gave all property in Florida to surviving two children?
Customs and legal provisions vary from state to state so you would need to check your local practices. Generally, an executor can only execute a deed if that power was granted in the will or if there was a license to sell real estate granted by the court. If the power to sell real estate was granted in the will, the executor may execute a deed to the devisees in order to extinguish the power to sell and to establish the tenancy desired by the grantees. If the power to sell was not granted in the will, if the will has been allowed and the period for creditors to make claims has passed then the devisees do not need a deed to prove their ownership. If the devisees desire to establish their ownership by deed and also establish a particular tenancy they can execute a deed to a straw and then have the straw convey the property back with the desired tenancy recited. In some states a straw is not necessary. You should seek advice from the attorney who handled the estate. She/he will be able to advise you regarding the local legal requirments.
