Do you have the right type of deed?

Every day in real estate is a continual learning experience. I recently ran into a situation where my client purchased their home in the early 1970's. At that time the deeds were written differently. His wife passed away in the ealry 2000's and he thought everything was resolved with probate. When we went to sell his house we found out midstream that he did not have a joint survivorship deed and even though he had a will and death certificate, the house still had to go through quick probate. In the end it all worked out, but it cost him time and money. SInce we were in the middle of a real estate transaction it caused a lot of stress for all the parties involved. I would like this to be your wake up call to check on your deed and make sure you have the best kind for you.
