Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas
Deed
My wife left our community owned house to me. Do I need to remove her name from the deed in order to sell it? The will has been probated leaving her community half to me. Do I still need to take some action?
Thank you

Re: Deed
Probably not. The title company, at the time of closing the sale, will examine probate and deem the house yours to sell. They will make any requirements and take care of the paperwork if there are deficiencies of any kind.
