Hi good morning everybody,
I inherited my mothers house last year and want to change the name on the deeds. Is there any way I can do this myself other than using a solicitor ? I have tried the land registry but the call queues are very long
Many Thanks

Yes. Assuming
* Probate has been granted
* the Executer of the will has the Probate Grant.
* there is no mortgage
* the property is already registered
then it is straight-forward. You'll need forms
* AS1
* AP1

If the beneficiary is paying anything (eg buying out the share of a joint beneficiary) of more than £40K then form SDLT5 must be submitted to HMRC.0 -
Hi thank you so much I have just downloaded the forms from the land registry0

Depending on when the house was last sold you may also have to deal with the first registration at the Land Registry.0
