I am setting up an affidavit for someone to sign as a successor trustee. In the original trust from 1995, there was a portion of land. It has been dispersed and is no longer in the trust. When preparing the affidavit for that person as the successor trustee, do I need to list the real estate?

Would it be better to do a general warranty deed or a deed of gift? One last question: can you confirm I am doing the steps correctly? The son passed away and was never married, nor had children, only a property. However, one of the parents is deceased. According to Texas law, the deceased parent’s share automatically goes to the other siblings. I did an affidavit of heirship, and now I am creating a general warranty deed. Is this correct? I greatly appreciate all your help.
