The sibling does not have the right to change a grant deed. Only the property owner can make such a change.

Can a sibling have a will changed even if it is not in probate?

I'm not an attorney. But if I'm reading the question correctly, the ONLY time a will can be changed is before it gets to probate. And it can be changed only by the testator, the one whose will it is. Once a will is under the control of probate court, and that would be after the death of the testator, the court decides whether the provisions of the will are legal, and then the will is executed as written. Assuming that we are talking about the will of a parent and the actions of sibling children of the parent, if siblings could just freely change wills after a parent's death, there would be utter chaos in probate courts. If there is a question about the competence of the testator to make a change, it is probate court that determines what will happen.

How isInherited property by 5 siblings one sibling has liens that will be more than her proceeds from her portion of the sale of the property how is that handled in South Dakota?

In South Dakota, if one sibling has liens that exceed their portion of the proceeds from the sale of inherited property, those liens can be addressed during the settlement of the estate. The proceeds from the sale can be used to pay off the liens before distribution among the siblings. If the liens amount to more than the sibling’s share, they may not receive any proceeds, but the remaining siblings will still receive their respective shares. It is advisable to consult with a probate attorney to navigate the specifics of such situations.

Single parent has will leaving estate to two adult children One child dies before parent Will is not changed Does estate go solely to remaining child or does estate of deceased child receive half?

That all depends on the wording in the will.Generally, there are a couple of types of devise that are commonly used in wills. If the will provides that the property shall go to the siblings or to the survivor of them, the surviving sibling will take all. However, if the will says the property shall go to the siblings or the issue of a sibling who predeceased the testator then the deceased sibling's share will go to her children, if any.On the other hand, if the will is silent as to the distribution in the case of a deceased child of the testator then the deceased siblings share will pass as intestate property to the legal next of kin of the testator. In your case that will be the child of the deceased sibling.You should consult with an attorney who can review the situation and determine what the law is in your state. In most cases, an attorney should be handling the probate of the estate if there is property in the estate that was solely owned by the testator.
