My Aunt passed away many years and her daughters and grand kids are dead as well. I am her nephew what entitlements do I have to her property? I just paid all the taxes owed and recovered the property from a tax sale. Does her deed now show up in my name?
Who did the property transfer to when the aunt died? If there were no heirs to the property but you, then you could file a affidavit of death at the county. You then would become the property owner, if you are the remaining heir. Also you have been taxes which shows vested interest. Contact your county recorders office and they should point you in the right direction.
