My mother passed without a will. The heirs have opened my mother estate and a personal representative from the family has been appointed. We need to transfer my mother's deed so that we can sell the property. Question, should the deed be transferred to my mother estate or should it be transferred to the personal representative?
Welcome terryvannellis,
The personal representative can file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office in order to get the deed transferred in his/her name. Then the property could be sold off.

I agree to adonis, the personal representative from your family should take action on getting the deed transferred. After being approved and is legally processed, you and your family can have the freedom to sell it to any who wants to buy it from you.
