Are there any recurring fees involved?
No. Nothing to cancel, no memberships, no recurring fees.
When people create their wills, they generally name one or more individuals to supervise the distribution of their assets. The person who fills this role is called an executor. Sometimes, though, the chosen executor is unable, unfit, or unwilling to accept the responsibility. In other situations, the deceased dies intestate (without a will). No matter the reason, if there is no executor, the probate court will appoint an administrator to manage the probate estate.
Georgia customarily uses the term "personal representative" to refer to both executors and administrators, but can get more specific when it comes to conveying title to real estate. During probate, the court may direct an administrator to sell real property to pay the estate's debts or to consolidate the decedent's assets for distribution to any heirs.
An administrator's deed, executed by the appointed personal representative, includes relevant information about the decedent and the probate case, in addition to the state and local requirements. To transfer title to a buyer, record the completed administrator's deed, along with any necessary supporting documents, with the real property records of the appropriate county.
Consult an attorney with questions about the administrator's deed, or with any other issues related to probate in Georgia.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.
Thanks for the kind words James, glad we could help. Look forward to seeing you again.

Wasn’t what I expected
Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

Very helpful and informative. It has saved me time going to get the forms at county recorder / clerk (as my county and state websites dont offer forms on their sites) and also provided help understanding the uses of the specific deed I needed to use.
Thank you Eric. Have a great day!

Quick and easy to use. I was able to download the Transfer on Death Deed form to my computer so that I can read through and fill them out at a later time. That made it convenient and "no pressure". The complimentary guide and completed example that came with the form was also very helpful.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
