Re: Grandmother Property Not Probated

Grandmother's property will have to be probated to change ownership. You do not say if someone is paying property taxes or who is currently using the property. Any potential heir or ceditor of the estate could start the probate process. Lastly, I am not sure I agree with how you have potentially divided this estate. I suggest you speak with a probate attorney in your area.
