What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut
To avoid probate, my mother transferred her personal home, a condo, to my siblings and me, via a quitclaim deed while retaining life use for "income, use, improvement, occupation, and enjoyment". Eight years later, my mother is now selling the property, with the consent of my siblings and me, the "remaindermen".
Questions: Can my mother alone act as the seller for purposes of the house sale contract, and do we, the remaindermen, need to provide her with (notarized), written consent to avoid any hassles on the seller's ownership from a title search by a prospective buyer?
