I am personal representative for my mother's estate. Her will gave me complete control of her assets. My sister had been driving Mom's car for over a year, with Mom's permission. She does not have a car of her own, nor have the money to buy one. The car is very old, almost worthless from a monetary point of view, and I know Mom would have wanted her to have it. Can I transfer title to her without violating any of my responsibilities to the estate? I know she is not supposed to drive it now that our mother has passed, but it is her only way of getting to and from work. Can I do this as long as I keep a record of the transfer? Being personal rep is far more stressful than I ever would have guessed, but solving this problem would be a great help.
Thank you!

It depends on the nature of the estate, what the will said etc. If your sister is a beneficiary of the estate then I don't see a problem here. You would have to get an appraisal of the car, then use that appraisal as a credit against your sister's share of the estate. Then just transfer title. As Executor you can sign off on the title transfer.

Thanks for the response. My sister is a beneficiary, and the will is very clear and uncomplicated so I feel comfortable going forward with this.
