if property purchased by two sisters of 9 siblings, one of the owners dies, and another sister places the property in succession,(there was no will) what can the existing owner do with property to have full title.

what rights does the living owner have?

Hi bobbie,

The living owner can file an affidavit of heirship and get the property transferred in her name. In order to do so, the living owner will have to contact the county recorder's office.

Thank you for your reply. I have found out that the property has not been put in succession. the ? is if the property is purchased by two sisters of 9 siblings, one dies (there is no will), does the previous answer you sent me applies to this question.

Hi Guest,

If the two sisters purchased the property and if one of them is deceased, then the deceased sister's heirs will be able to claim their share from the property. However, if the property is owned as joint tenants with right of survivorship, then the living sister will be able to claim the sole property.

Thanks
