Re: Property in FL, Probate Required?
If title to the property is still in the grandparents name then probate is required to transfer title to the 2 daughters so that one will have the rights to sell her share to the other.
Re: Property in FL, Probate Required?
There is a special procedure under the Florida Probate Code to transfer one beneficiaries interest to another beneficiary as part of the Probate of the estate. However, before I can give you any legal advise I would need to know all the facts of the situation.
Please e-mail your phone number to me to schedule a telephonic consultation.

The answer depends on how property was transfered (deed or will).
