What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
When me father's estate was probated the title was put over into the estates name. I was told there is no way to get the title put into my and my brother's name now( we are the heirs). I am the executrix of the estate so when i sell the house i will have to sign the paperwork. What are the tax implications for when the house is sold? It's only worth 35,000. Do my brother and I put the selling of the home on our taxes? Will the estate have to be reopened to file taxes on it since the estate's final account has already been filed? Do I need a real estate attorney?Any information would be helpful!
.....P.S. The attorneys whom did the probate are distant relatives whom I do not have a relationship with. They made my father's will and handled the probate and just sent me paperwork through the mail. They were very unhelpful and I refuse to call them that is why I 'm asking for advise here so any advice BESIDES CALLING THE ATTORNEY WHO HANDLED IT is helpful.
