Deed transfer from a couple to just a sinlge name on the deed (after the death of a spouse)

Posted on: 14th Sep, 2009 08:58 pm
A family member was asking if it would be best to have her property transferred to her name only on the deed or would it be best to leave it deeded as it is with both her and her (deceased) husband's name?
Your friend can transfer the property in her name by filing an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office. This will help her in the long run. She will be able to sell off the property in future easily if she wishes to.
