Florida Personal Representative's Distributive Deed (testate)
This form is for use by the personal representative designated in the will of a deceased property owner.
Wills, or last wills and testaments, are estate planning documents used to organize and record how people wish to distribute their assets after death. If someone dies after executing and filing a will, their estate is identified as "testate."
Real estate is a common asset, and with proper approval, a personal representative's distributive deed can be used if the personal representative is called upon to sell the property. These instruments are useful because they collect the relevant details about the transfer and the deceased owner into one document.
Personal representative's distributive deeds are used to transfer ownership of real property from a testate estate. Each situation is unique, however, so contact an attorney with specific questions or for complex cases.
(Florida Personal Representative Deed Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

These forms made it so easy to update the property deed and the instructions and sample filled out form were most helpful. You might want to add some brief information on when or why to use the Acknowledgment in Individual Capacity notary form. In my case the notary was required to use it but also filled in the brief notarize section on the Affidavit as well. She said the one on the Affidavit had some value because it showed she had witnessed the my signature. But this was only after I suggested both be filled in as she initially thought to just strike through it and just use the Acknowledgment in Individual Capacity form.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I thought the forms were reasonably priced, the instructions included in the packet were thorough, and the examples helpful. Thank you for the additional CDR forms too. I contacted the Recorder's office via email with a question and Jennifer Bowser answered promptly. Job well done! However, when I delivered the deed and Real Property Transfer Declaration to the Clerk's office in Lafayette, the clerk was unfamiliar with the Declaration document being submitted and it took some time to convince her to submit the form without charging the recording fee. She even tried to phone the recorder's office for clarification, but no one answered. There then was an additional form at that office that I had to complete called Recording Request/Transmittal Form. I would suggest including that form with instructions in your on-line packet to speed up the process when a Deed is delivered to the County Clerk's satellite office. I do not expect every clerk to know all the particulars of recording requirements but a little knowledge wouldn't hurt.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Fill in the blanks portions are so limited, it makes it almost impossible to use.
Sorry to hear that David. Your order and payment has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.
