My father put my sister and I on his grant deed as joint tenants with equal shares in September of 2008. In March of 2011 my father broke the joint tenancy and granted it to himself. Can he do this with out our signature. My brother is try to take my dads third when he dies. My brother put him up to the march deed. I filed an affidavit of death when my father died in October 2011 and removed my father from deed wich now my sister and I are on the deed. My brother has produced a will and has put the property into probate. What happens from here, can he take one third of the deed over.
Hi Bakosh!
Welcome to forums!
I don't think your father will be able to break the joint tenancy without your permission and signature. If the will mentions your brother as one of the major beneficiaries of the deed, then he will get his share of the property. It will be better if you could contact your real estate attorney and take his opinion in this matter.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

The notary public or other official then places a seal and marks the document accordingly to show that it was properly signed and acknowledged. The reason the document must be notarized is to provide evidence that the signature of the grantor is genuine as transaction documents are sometimes forged. Some jurisdictions use the warranty deed to transfer real property instead of the grant deed.
