Transferring New York Real Property with an Administrator's Deed
Administrator's deeds are used to transfer title to real property when the owner died intestate (without a last will and testament).
The Surrogate's Court appoints an administrator to distribute the deceased individual's estate according to the rules set out in section 4-1.1of New York's Estates, Powers, and Trusts Law (EPT). The surrogate (the judge managing the case) issues documents called letters of administration, authorizing the administrator to begin his/her duties. If the estate includes real property, those duties could include using an administrator's deed to sell it.
Administrator's deeds contain the same information as warranty or quitclaim deeds, but they also include details about the administrator and the deceased owner. The administrator acts as the grantor on the deed, and his/her signature must be notarized. Some cases may require a witness to sign the deed in front of the notary, too. Note that at sections 309-a and 309-b, New York's Real Property Law (RPP) sets out specific notary statements based on whether the deed is signed inside or outside the state.
In addition to the standard state and local forms that accompany deeds submitted for recording, administrators might need to attach letters of administration from the Surrogate's Court, certified copies of the decedent's death certificate, and other supporting documentation as appropriate. Depending on the circumstances, the sale might also require court approval.
Probate procedures can be complicated, and each situation is unique. Seek assistance from an attorney or from the surrogate responsible for the case with any questions about this process.

Rec'd downloads for quitclaim deed process in Florida. Recorded with the clerk of courts today and the form was done perfectly--she had no changes to make. Well worth the money--thanks

The process was not difficult but I don't think that it suited my needs.
There were several fields that were not applicable to me but I had to enter something to proceed.
I also filled out the other form and mailed it in with some documentation that the electronic service did not ask for.
Questions of my attempt are still unanswered. I hope I didn't waste time with this process. We shall see.
Thank you.
Thank you!
