What Exactly Is Deceased Estate Conveyancing?

Deceased estate conveyancing refers to the legal process of transferring ownership of property from a deceased person to their beneficiaries or executors. This process can be complex, and it is essential to seek the assistance of a conveyancer to ensure that it is carried out correctly.

The documents required by the Land Titles Office will vary depending on how the property was held by the deceased, such as solely, joint tenants, tenants in common, or trustee. For example, if the property was held as joint tenants, the surviving partner will automatically become the owner upon the death of their partner.

However, if the property was held in trust, the documentation required will depend on various factors, such as the number of trustees registered on the title. This is where a conveyancer can be especially helpful, as they can advise, prepare and lodge all the necessary documents at the Land Titles Office.

Dealing with the death of a loved one can be a difficult time, and having a conveyancer handle the legal aspects of transferring the property can provide peace of mind and allow you to focus on other important matters. It is important to note that deceased estate conveyancing is a necessary process, as it ensures that the transfer of ownership is carried out correctly and legally.
