Best Answer

Yes it will. I'm experiencing this situation currently. My husband passed a little over a year ago, and I failed to take his name off of the deed. The home was paid for and recently there was a claim submitted. The check from the insurance company came to the deceased and me. I can't deposit the check or cash it. It's totally worthless unless I file papers with the county to open an Estate...which involves more fees, and then open an Estate Checking Acct. It will be a long drawn out process that I would not have to go through, had I removed his name from the deed after he passed.
