Quick Claim Title Transfer After Probate

I am looking for an answer to this question. My grandmother has past away leaving her house to my father. In Florida a death forces everything to be settled through probate court. She didn't have a living will. My father is not interested in the property and after probate is settled will give me the house. Can this be simply be done by quick claim deeds? Adding me and taking himself off? Or what is the easiest solution?
Thanks in advance... <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif"> [ Edited by rngrmdc on Date 07/17/2003 ]

    As part of the probate a personal rep. would be appointed who then in turn could issue you a PERSONAL REP. DEED

    NICE to meet you!

    If I were you I'd talk with (free Consult) a Probate Atty in your area.

    Preferrably one well versed in Family Living Partnerships, Living Trusts, and other Probate/Estate plnng. methods.

    Both you & Your Dad may be able to avoid some of if not ALL of the Sting of Heirship transfer, Inheritance, and Exise Taxes by NOT directly Deeding this property into your names.

    Personally, I avoid ever having title to properties in my name if I can help it.
    (Just my personal preference.)

    Call around until you find the right legal beagle whom is willing to consult (free 1st Apptmt???) with you.

    Best of Good Fortune to You!
