An executor's deed is a deed executed by the executor of an estate when the executor conveys the real estate owned by the decedent. The executor must have the authority to convey. Laws vary but generally, if the authority is not granted in the will then the executor must petition the court for a license to sell real estate. Unless the executor has authority under the law, in the will or by a license their deed would be null and void.
