What is the difference between a deed and a title on property?
crib2go asked:
My father passed away with the title only in his name and mother says she has a deed that shows her name on it, however the lawyers claim that they have no proof after looking for 2 months that mother is the sole owner. Since dad died with no will then it has to go through probate and be divided 1/2 to her the the remainder to the heirs (their children). What is the difference between deed and title, mother thinks they are one in the same and lawyers disagree, saying it depends on what kind of deed and they find nothing in records at court house to show she is sole owner.

Another thing the lawyers are stating since the property was homestead type property that she not only gets 1/2 and 25% of the other half for her life estate… Help on this would be appreciated.
No probate can be done until title is amended to show all on it and we are in process of selling the property… any suggestions on how to resolve this smoothly… mother will not budge and neither will attorneys…

If I receive a property tax bill in my name does that mean i own the property?
ginger asked:
My mom passed away and my uncle filed her will in probate court, In her will she willed her home to me. Shortly after, I started receiving a tax bill for the home she willed to me, because of this I assumed that the house was mines. I had durable power of attorney before my mom passed away so I was paying her bills. one of thoes bills was a deed of trust on that house that was willed to me. So out of habit I continued to pay the loan on that house not knowing that the bank needed to be notified of her passing. This i’ve done for a number of years. So where do I go from here? Please help, thanks!

Should there be two names on my moms deed to her home?
noname7104 asked:
If my mother passes away and their is no other names on the deed to her home, besides her own, what will happen to the home? Should there be a second name on the deed in order to keep the home out of probate court? We just don’t understand how to keep this house out of the states hands.We don’t want to go through all the hassle of courts once she passes.

My wife passed away,the house is in her name. Can I sell the house. Or probate court to change name on house?
Dominic asked:
My wife passed away, Her last wish is that I sell the house and 100% of the proceeds go to charity. She has a son age 26 and a daughter age 27. They both live out of town. Would I need to hire an attorney to change the house over into my name before selling her house?
