The deed is required, because the Trust itself is not an entity capable of owning real property. The Trustee is vested. Some say that a successor Trustee becomes the legal owner without a deed, which is technically true, but title companies will require a
deed, or substitute Affidavit or Court Order that puts the change of name in the public records. I would use a quitclaim deed, which would have no consequence on title insurance policy previously issued with the initial Trustee named, because the successor
Trustee is already an Insured by definitions.</div>
