Real Estate Title Issues After a Family Member's DeathWhen a multi-generation family occupies a home, the question of how title is held may not arise until other legal matters surface, such as: - Selling the home
- Refinancing the home
- Preventing a tax sale or foreclosure of the home
- Changing title of the home
However, if title is currently held by a family member that has passed away, real estate attorneys and mortgage companies cannot fully serve your needs. Before any of these real estate issues can be addressed, the decedent's estate must proceed through probate.
