    Conveying inherited property to non-heir
    In October 2008, my two sisters and I inherited property from my father who passed away in June. I would like to give my interest in the property to a non-heir (not my sisters). Is this possible without having to involve the probate court? I'm assuming I would need a warranty deed as opposed to a quit-claim deed, but I'm hoping someone can clarify this.

    Thanks so much!

    How did you and your sisters receive title? Was your father's estate probated and did the personal rep. convey the property to the three of you by deed? If so, a deed to the non-heir from you would be effective to convey your 1/3 undivided interest (if that's what you have) and there would be no need to involve the probate court. Whether your deed contains warranties doesn't matter; either way would be effective.
