Laws vary based on the jurisdiction. In most, the spouse has to sign their rights in the property away. This prevents them from clouding title to the property later on.
The decedent's estate must be probated in order for the heirs to have legal title to the real estate. All the heirs must sign the deed. If you want to sell the inherited real property the attorney who handles the estate can advise you.
It is not necessary to change the name in the land records. Probate court records are public records and the probated estate passes title to the heirs. However, if you want to transfer the property to the heirs by a deed the attorney who handled the estate can draft the proper deed for you.
Generally, in order for title to real estate to pass to the heirs or devisees the estate must be probated. If a person inherited an interest in real estate a quitclaim deed from them would convey their interest in the property IF the estate had been probated. If the estate was not probated then they are not a legal owner of the property and their deed would convey nothing.
Yes. You could have a deed drafted that conveys your property to eight children while reserving a life estate for yourself.
The estate deeds it to the heir. If the other heirs have rights in the property, they need to be paid for their share of the property, either by compensation from the estate (if the total estate is worth 5 times the value of the property) or the person getting the deed pays them off for their share of it.
If the probate process has been completed and title is in the heirs they can execute a deed to a straw and then the straw can convey the property back to the heirs by deed and the heirs will become the record owners of the property. However, that process isn't necessary except in cases where the heirs desire to have a deed in their own names. If the heirs want to sell to a third party they can execute a deed of their interest and cite the probate as their source of title. You should consult with the attorney who handled the estate who can review your situation and your needs and explain your options.
