PROBATE REAL ESTATE
TEXAS PROBATE  

  Probating is the legal process of transferring property following a person's death. You'll receive the letters of testamentary or letters of administration that you need in order to recover estate assets. It also helps you transfer title on real property. Probating customs and laws have changed over time, the purpose of probating has remained much the same: an individual formalizes their intentions as to the transfer of their property at the time of their death (typically through a Will), their property is collected, certain debts are paid from the estate and the property is distributed accordingly.

PROBATE REAL ESTATE

 

Probating real estate is treated the same why as probating the estate. However, to show the chain of title to sell proberty you can avoid a probate administration and you can probate a Will as a muniment of title or do a determination of heirship.
