Affidavit of heirship

Posted on: 05th Dec, 2008 03:58 pm
my mom died without a will in El Paso County Texas. I am her only child and she was not married. Can I transfer title with an affidavit of heirship?
Hi Edward,

The property would be divided amongst the heirs as per will of your wife. If your wife did not have a will, then the heirs to the property - you and her children can file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office and transfer the property in your name.

Thanks

Hi sharon!

Welcome to forums!

If the quitclaim deed mentions you as the grantee, then you're the sole owner of the property. As your siblings are not mentioned on the property deed, they won't have any ownership rights to the property. Thus, if you sell off the property, they will have no say in it.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Mygrandmother willed her house and land to my mother when she passed away. My mother never changed the deed intohr name, she has pssed away and willed the house to me because my sister and brother-in-law have a house. This is ok with my sister. How do I get the house and land int my name. Can I do his myself, since I'm unemployed and can't afford the outrages taxes I'm being charged since the house is not in my nme. All suggestions are appreciated.

Hi Trisha,

As there is a will, you'll have to probate it first. Once the probate is complete, you'll have to file it at the county recorder's office and get the property transferred in your name.

Thanks

If you want an affidavit of heirship, you can get one from legalzoom.com and order/get those and other legal forms. I'm helping an elderly woman with the same thing, and this is where she ordered and got the forms from. It even included an extra copy of it, and it gave an example of how the document should look when completed.

Parents passed away and two adul siblings are from that marriage. One sibling passed away 10 years ago. Does property belong to the remaining sibling and has to file an Affidavit of Heirship?

Hi tx!

Welcome to forums!

The property now belongs to the remaining sibling. This sibling now needs to file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office and get the property transferred into his/her name.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Thank you Sussane for answering my question.

One more question.

With the Affidavit of Heirship can I put the house up for sale?

Hi tx,

An affidavit of heirship will help you in transferring the property in your name. Thus, you will become the owner of the property and would able to sell it off as well.

Thanks

I have a question regarding the purchase of property. The lady I was buying from has just passed away. She left no will. She has a son and several grand children. I am three payments away from completing a 20 year note. The son lives in a different state and his mother was living with her grandson and family. She and I spoke the other day and she stated that if anything happened to her that I was to give the money to her grandson. Do you have any suggestions as to what course of action I should take. Is there a way for me to protect my purchase and obtain the tiltle to the property. What should I do?

Welcome Sybil,

You must be having a written agreement in regards to the purchase of the property and the mortgage payments. You should contact the grandson along with the required documents and sort out the issue. You can even take the help of an attorney in this regard who will deal with seller's grandson in this matter.
