The question was, in order to avoid probate, can a house originally deeded to husband and wife be retitled after the death of one spouse in the name of the remaining spouse with a child as TOD, POD or beneficiary, not a will, but the deed to the house, for property located in New Jersey and property located in New York State?? Do you understand the question? I'm talking about deeds only, can they be set up this way for property located in both NJ and NYS so that the property does not have to go through probate?
