Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

Re: Requirements for selling inherited property.

If the property is titled in a deceased person's name, then you have to establish title in your name prior to your selling. As for how to do that, I would need more information, such as:

1. When did the deceased die?

2. Did the deceased have a will?

3. Who are the deceased's surviving family members?

4. Did the deceased have any other property?

5. Did the deceased have any debts?

There are different ways to clear title, and they depend on the specific facts of the case.

Given that you're dealing with real property, I strongly recommend your hiring Texas counsel to assist you with this.

Re: Requirements for selling inherited property.

In order to sell property, it must either be in your name or you have to show authority to sell on behalf of some other entity. This is not really seomthing you want to try and do yourself. You should have a Texas attorney handle it for you.
