House was left to heirs forever by my grandfather. My mother was the last surviving sister. She lived in house until her demise. Her 3 sister's children had their names on deed after their parent's death. My mother's name was not on deed as she was a minor at time sisters names were placed on deed. Can I record my name by showing that my mother was an heir? The original bill of sale states; "To My Hiers Forever". Thank you
Welcome rapid,
As the property should go to the heirs, it would have been better had your mother added her name to the deed prior to her demise. Now, if you have to add your name, possible you'll have to request the other heirs to quitclaim a part of their share of property.

You will need a court order. You must file a "quiet title" lawsuit. Check with a local real estate attorney.
