Once they have transferred the property, it is no longer a part of the estate. If they try to sell it, they would be selling something they have no control over. They may be able to bring the property back into the estate, but it would take a court order to do so.

Not unless the executor is also a beneficiary of the property along with the others. The estate must be probated in order for title to be transferred to the heirs legally.

How is property title transferred after probate is closed?

If the probate process has been completed and title is in the heirs they can execute a deed to a straw and then the straw can convey the property back to the heirs by deed and the heirs will become the record owners of the property. However, that process isn't necessary except in cases where the heirs desire to have a deed in their own names. If the heirs want to sell to a third party they can execute a deed of their interest and cite the probate as their source of title. You should consult with the attorney who handled the estate who can review your situation and your needs and explain your options.

How do you transfer the deed of a deceased parent in NJ to surviving children?

When a decedent owned real property their estate must be probated for title to pass to the heirs. Also, the court must appoint a representative of the estate. You should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate law for the procedure in your particular jurisdiction. In NJ, either the executor or the administrator will sign what we call an "executor's deed" where there is a will or an "administrator's deed" where the is no will. This is to formalize the transfer of the property. It is important to know that the beneficiaries or heirs technically own the property as of the date of death rather than the date of the deed. This deed is a formality only.

Is an executor's deed as good as a warranty deed?

They are different.When referring to loans secured by real property a deed of trust is the term (and process) used in some states for a loan secured by real estate. The property is transferred to a trustee until the loan is paid and then the trustee transfers the property back to the owner by a trustee's deed.In many states a mortgage is used to secure real property that is used as collateral for a loan. When the loan is paid the mortgage is discharged.Both terms have a different meaning when referring to conveyancing.
