An executor's deed is a statutory form under RIGL 34-11-12 for sales of real property from a probated estate. An executor is a court-appointed fiduciary entrusted to administer a decedent's estate. He or she is the personal representative named in the decedent's will.

Use an executor's deed to transfer title to a purchaser with implied fiduciary covenants. Executor's deeds contain covenants that the grantor is the duly qualified and acting executor of the estate, that he or she has good right and lawful authority to convey the decedent's interest in the subject property, and that he or she, in his or her capacity, has given bond as required by law and has complied in all respects with the court's decree.

In Rhode Island, the probate court must authorize sales of realty from the estate (RIGL 33-19-3). Prior to the sale, the executor files a petition for the sale of real estate with the court, which must include the reason for the sale. Valid reasons for petitioning for the sale of real property under RIGL 33-12-6 include enabling the payment of debts or facilitating efficient administration of the estate. This authority excludes sales of real property that is specifically devised by the decedent's will, unless the devisee(s) give consent to the sale. An executor with a power of sale under a will must also obtain consent to sell specifically devised real property (RIGL 33-12-6).

In addition to meeting the standard requirements for form and content of deeds in Rhode Island, the executor's deed should reflect the true consideration paid by the grantee for the grantor's interest in the realty. Rhode Island levies a real estate conveyance tax based on purchase price, to be paid by the grantor, due upon recording (RIGL 44-25-1). Submit a conveyance tax return (CVYT-1) to the Rhode Island Division of Taxation. The executor may also be asked to furnish an affidavit of residency to the buyer, unless the deed includes a statement that no withholding of tax under RIGL 44-30-71.3 is required.

The executor must sign the deed in the presence of a notary public for a valid transfer. Recording in Rhode Island is done at the municipal level in the town or city where the property is situated. Submit the completed, signed, and notarized deed, along with any supplemental documents, to the land evidence division of the town clerk in the municipality where the subject parcel is located.

The information provided here is not a substitute for legal advice. Consult an attorney licensed in the State of Rhode Island with questions regarding executor's deeds, or for any other issues related to settling an estate, as each situation is unique.

This was the first time to use the Deeds.com website for preparing my deed document. This was painless and easy to follow the instructions and sample package for filling in the blank boxes document. The city clerk was impressed to review my document and easily filed my deed record without questions. I would recommend anyone to prepare a legal form that is available from the Deeds.com website.

I was very pleased. It was the form I needed. I was getting discouraged by companies that wanted me to sign up for monthly payments just to get the one form I needed. I prefer your system of paying for what I get. Thank you so much!

Although I am sure that the Quit Claim form was acceptable for my county, I felt that it was not formatted in the manor that I have seen while viewing the other deeds recorded. So that forms that I received were not useful to me.
