My sister recently died. She owned a home and the title is in her name. She had no will. Her and her husband have been estranged for over 6 years, but they are still married. She wanted the home to go to her son. My question is... does the home automatically go to the estranged husband?? Does he have to do a transfer of title to him?? Or do we have to get him to sign the house over to his son?? I live in CA. We want to get this house in her son's name ASAP. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Welcome yuki,
The husband as well as the son, both will be considered as the heirs to the property and can file an affidavit of heirship to claim the property. The son can get a no objection certificate from his father and file an affidavit of heirship to transfer the property in his name.
