Is probate needed?

    I've agreed a price to buy out all the shares in a house. Currently the house is technically owned by my father and my two uncles one of which passed away in recent times.

    The house was originally my grandmothers. Her will was put through probate. But the deeds of house are still in her name. As solicitors said it woukd be better for a future sale paperwork wise.

    The problem arises with my late uncles share of house. His share was never put through probate and put into his wife's/my aunts name.

    The question is, if house is still in grandmothers name and my dad was executor of will. Since a price has been agreed with all parties could i buy property without my late uncles share going through probate? As they will all get a share of the sale price.

    Did your granny leave the property to her sons as joint tenants or tenants in common? Think probate will be needed if the latter.
