Re: Transfer of Property
Since there was no will to probate, you may need to administer the estate. There is no "form". Consult with a local attorney.

You should obtain the forms that you need and the information about how to have them executed properly from a real estate attorney. Trying to do this yourself may cause expensive problems down the road in the event that do-it-yourself documents are deficient and the individuals who need to sign them are unavailable or unwilling to sign in the future. As a real estate attorney, I have witnessed numerous problems that resulted from failure to obtain legal assistance to effect transfer of property.
Re: Transfer of Property
It is worth the time and initial expense of having a lawyer handles it. Find a local lawyer who handles this as a primary practice, and not merely one who claims to do real estate, personal injury, and any number of other unrelated areas to get a fee. The best resource is referrals from trusted and knowledgeable friends or local lawyers. A home tied up in an estate is not something to risk.
