Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

My sister and I inherited five acres of property from the passing of my father five years ago. We have been trying to transfer our names to this property. Our father did have a Will of Testament signed by two in the state of Florida. However GA will not accept this information. How can we go about a name change?

You fail to indicate where the property is located and where your father was living when he died. The will may have to go to probate. In addition, an ancillary probate may be required.

I think I can be of help, if you would like to call. Good luck.

if the property is located in Georgia, you need an attorney up there to help. in Florida, you would need to probate the Estate and eventually transfer the property from probate to the beneficiaries.
