Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

No. . . you really need a lawyer to get the deed transferred properly

1. No, house must go through probate. and have an Estate Personal Representative sign the deed.

2. Unless your agreement was in writing, it cannot be enforced.

You need to talk to probate lawyer; based on what you're saying; the house was brothers "homestead'"; you can probably transfer the house without a personal representatives deed, it would likely be transferred by an Order Determining Homestead signed by judge, but you may be able to do that in a summary administration, which is type of probate (depending on how long brother has been dead and whether there are other assets and any bills). Once house is transferred in equal shares to all 4 siblings then the two selling siblings can sign deeds to the other 2 and get paid. But a probate lawyer should be able to detail exactly what you need to do.

My colleague Mr. Jones is correct in his answers to you. Depending on the size and amount of the estate , can be done through Summary Administration and the property divided to all four of you. Afterwards each of you can decide how to pay and deed that portion to the others.

This can likely be done through Summary Administration along with a signed agreement and deed. Because there are multiple beneficiaries involved, Florida requires an attorney to handle the Summary Administration. You will want an attorney to review other potential assets that may be subject to probate as well.
