Your husband will have to file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office and also submit his grandfather's death certificate. This will help him in transferring the property in his name. Feel free to ask if you've further queries. Sussane

Apart from this, a real estate attorney may also be able to help you to some extent. But again, if the property was a part of some kind of scam, then it will be better if you could avoid the property. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial success
