On of 4 grantors dies before deed is recorded on file. Does this effect ownership in anyway or does deceased Grantee heirs need to quitclaim their interest? Or is nothing needed. This is family land and deceased had a 1/4 undivided interest and deeded to daughter. The other 3 Grantors were the deceased siblings and are still living.

Hi Guest,

As the deed wasn't recorded before the death of the Grantor, it won't be considered as valid. The heirs of the deceased grantor will be able to claim their interest in the property. You need to contact a real estate attorney and take his opinion in this matter.

Thanks
