<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Melinda--I typically have my PRs do a quitclaim deed, and call it a quitclaim deed, where the estate conveys all it has without any warranty. I have never heard of beneficiaries having any problem with this. Is there any reason you know of why this wouldn't work? </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Mark</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 31, 2014 at 1:11 PM, Melinda Grout <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mkgroutlaw@gmail.com" target="_blank">mkgroutlaw@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style>Mates,<div><br></div><div>A couple of years back there was some discussion of whether or not it is wise to use a standard Bargain & Sale Deed as a PR/Fiduciary deed, as there are still warranties being made in that deed that could come back to haunt the PR. I have since seen some lawyers using a “PR Deed” with essentially quit claim language, and I have seen some uniquely drafted other language not found in the standard deeds, and I wonder how these will stand up to challenge down the road. I also wonder if, when using other than standard language in PR deeds, it wouldn’t be necessary to reference the granting language with limited covenants in the listing agreement.</div><div><br></div><div>I’d appreciate hearing where people are on these matters these days. For myself, I have still been using Bargain and Sale, but have never felt entirely safe about the whole thing. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for any discussion or input.
