Hi, and thank you for your time, I am wondering if, my mother has entitlement to real estate property, her husband of 32 years died, does she assume ownership of his half of property (he has a sister) upon his death, he had no will, but had children from a previous marriage.
Hi Guest,
Your father's children from the previous marriage and your mother are heirs to your father's property. All off them can contact the county recorder's office and sign the affidavit of heirship in order to get the property transferred in their names.
Thanks

with regard to previous question, first thank you for your reply, i have recently learned that there was a quit claim deed filed, this document designates property to my father and his sister as joint tenants in common with full rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common.. would my mother still have any claim to this property? thank you again
Welcome Guest,
As your father's sister owns the property as joint tenants in common with full rights of survivorship, your mother won't be able to claim any heirship in that property.
