My father passed away recently, he left behind a will on the property that he had earned throughout his life. This will although was not registered with the government. He made me and my mother the joint owners of one of his properties. What are the steps that we will have to take to transfer these property documents?
The Will is not requried to be registered however, unless the Will is probated bequest under the Will cannot given effect to. However, if you and your mother are the only legal heirs of your father, then you could appy for letters of admnistration and thereafter seek transfer of the property to your and your mother's name.
