The personal representative's deed of distribution is a fiduciary instrument used in probate proceedings as evidence that a distributee has succeeded to the decedent's interest in real property ( 524.3-908). A personal representative, who may also be referred to as either an executor or administrator, is the fiduciary appointed to manage the decedent's estate.
After Minnesota Conveyancing Blanks Form 10.5.1, use this deed to make a distribution of real property from an individual personal representative (as opposed to a business entity personal representative) with no warranty.
See Minnesota Courts General Practice Rule 410 for requirements for transfers of real estate, and contact a lawyer with questions regarding estate administration and deeds of distribution in Minnesota.

Your website advertising was somewhat deceptive regarding doing a quitclaim on a name change.
"If you are transferring the property to yourself under your new name, all you have to do is update the deed from your former name to your current one."
This made this sound easy. But when I downloaded the material for my state, expecting to find an example, there was no example of how to do a name change quitclaim deed!
I therefore had to figure this out myself. You might have provided a warning about certain uses that were not covered in the material so that people know ahead of time that the use they needed to know about wasn't covered in the material.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
