Do we need to use a Grant Deed to Transfer Ownership from a Trust to a family member. My Mother has recently passed away, I am the executor of the Trust and I need to transfer the property from the Trust to myself, her daughter.
Hi cedratm,
Since you are the executor of the trust, after your mother's death you are now the legal owner of the property. Thus I don't think there's any need to transfer the property to your name. However, transfer of property from a trust through a grant deed or a quit claim deed, I believe, is possible.
