Definition and Purpose: A South Fulton Georgia Trustee's Deed is an official document used to transfer ownership of real property from a trust to a beneficiary or third party. It serves as evidence of the transfer and ensures that the property title is legally obtained by the new owner. 2. Types of South Fulton Georgia Trustee's Deed: a. Special Warranty Deed: Also known as a Limited Warranty Deed, this type of Trustee's Deed guarantees that the property has no defects during the trustee's ownership period.

Quitclaim deeds are commonly used in non-sale situations like gifting or transferring property between family members. d. Beneficiary's Deed: A Beneficiary's Deed, also known as a Transfer on Death Deed (TOD), allows the trustee to designate a specific beneficiary who will become the property's owner upon the trustee's death. This type of deed helps avoid probate and simplifies the transfer of real estate upon the trustee's passing.
