Tenants in Common when one party dies

Posts: 61 Forumite
My parents owned their retirement apartment as 'Tenants in Common'. My father has recently passed away, I have now got the probate (all done without a solicitor) and want to put the property into my mothers sole name (as stated in my fathers will).
I asked Land Registry, using online enquiry, what forms to use and they told me AS1 and AP1. On reading their notes I wondered if I could use RX3, so I rang them up and I was told the previous information was incorrect and I needed forms RX3 and DJP (Death of Joint Party).
Can anyone advise me which forms are the correct ones to use. (or perhaps I should use a solicitor for this one). Thanks

I am sorry for your loss. I don't know the answer to your question, but I am sure that you won't need a solicitor to deal with this. Hopefully the very helpful MSE Land Registry Representative will be along soon to set you straight.I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.0

The Land Registry really should be congratulated on letting one of their employees help so much on this forum.0 -

Thanks for this - that link gives the same advice I got on the phone - DJP and RX30
