Do not assume one heir can sell

Legal-heir certificates, family descriptions or possession may not by themselves establish the full share or authority to transfer.

Evidence to review

Review death records, Will and probate or administration issues where applicable, succession law, partition or release deeds and identity of every required party.

Independent advice

Succession differs by personal law, family facts and document history. Obtain a property advocate opinion before paying.

Official primary sources

Next action

Give the property-specific records to an independent property advocate for a written title opinion. Use a licensed surveyor for boundaries and physical identity.
