Writing an offer when there is a deceased person on Title - BC Victoria

Writing an offer when there is a deceased person on Title - BC Victoria

Q - How do I write in the owners names on the agreement when then husband is deceased but still on the title doc?

 

 

A – You can ignore the husband as his interest has passed by virtue of joint tenancy (I assume is held as joint tenants)‎ to the wife.

 

She does need to formally convey title to herself at or prior to the completion date by filing an original death certificate at the Land Title Office. I would suggest she contact her conveyancing lawyer and have this done sooner than later.
