  • After Grant, house title in joint names

    I have a query where Letter of Administration is given (grant without Will) to the 3 personal representatives who are the only 3 beneficiaries, and are meant to end up with their names on the property title.

    No one knows what they signed because they didn't keep a copy of the document! But l was wondering if as it is one beneficiary wants their share of the house to go in their Will for their kids to have, does that mean the beneficiaries should have signed to be tenants in common?

    Would anyone agree it's just easier to sell the million pound house now and split the costs and the proceeds between the 3 beneficiaries and walk away?

    I'd be grateful for any views.

    Thanks

    1. Sever the joint tenancy and apply to amend the register. And yes, shares would pass into the individual owners' estates.

    2. Selling now may be sensible.

      Thank you so much

      So regardless of which type of tenancy just severe. That's the best thing because the other idea is to become landlord property tycoons!
