In the United States it depends on whether a joint tenancy was created in the original gift. A joint tenancy is created by using particular language that generally states that the property is to be held jointly and to the Survivor of the grantees. The most common phrase used to create a joint tenancy is "as joint tenants with the right of survivorship".
If a joint tenancy was not created in the original gift then the brothers held as tenants in common and that means that when either dies their interest in the property can pass by their Will or if they have no Will it passes by law to their heirs at law, i.e., spouse and/or children. In this case the estate of the deceased brother must be probated in order for legal title to pass to his heirs.
Who starts the probate in this case or what if one doesnt take place. My father is 83 years old and is trying to figure out whst to do. Help
If grandfather transferred his property to the elder brother then the elder brother is the owner. Generally speaking, the other brothers have no right to any share. The other brothers can ask but the elder brother doesn't have to share the proceeds. If the other brothers believe the elder brother exerted undue influence to obtain the property they could sue in a court of equity.

It all depends on how many brothers there are. If you are talking about one brother, it will be " brother's ". EG: "I have two siblings, both fond of cycling. My brother's bike is made of cheese. My sister's bike, on the other hand, is not green." If you are talking about several brothers, it will be " brothers' ". EG : "My brothers' girlfriends all wear pancakes for shoes." (what are the odds?!)
Brothers become blood-related brothers if they are born to the same 2 parents. A brother can be adopted and become a brother. Brothers are step-brothers if one parent of each boy marries the parent of the other boy. Brothers can emotionally become 'brothers' when two people are friends but they have no family relationship between them.
