Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Re: inherited house

Once the will is probated, the personal representative can convey the appropriate deed. You will be buying their shares.

Reply: The deed can be prepared by the attorney for the estate or you can have your brother and sister execute a quit claim deed after the estate is completed and the property is retitled to the three of you. It will be deemed a sale and taxable as such.

Re: inherited house

You question implies that the property has already been conveyed from the estate to you and your brother and sister. Accordingly, a deed from them will be required. A single deed would suffice. You should seek the advice of competent counsel.
