Download Connecticut Executor Deed Forms

As part of the probate process, a personal representative's duties include transferring a decedent's real property to those entitled to receive it. A personal representative may also sell real property in order to pay the estate's debts.

An executor is a personal representative designated by a decedent's will to settle the decedent's estate. Use an executor's deed to convey fee simple title to a grantee, who is either a beneficiary, heir, or buyer.

The deed contains covenants that the grantor is qualified to act as executor of the decedent's estate; is authorized to bargain and sell the property pursuant to the terms of the decedent's will or by order of the probate court; and will warrant and defend the grantee's title against the claims of persons by, from, or under the grantor.
