Selling a property without probating an estate

Hi All. Are there Any title companies out there known to allow some sort of affidavits from heirs to suffice for an official probating of an estate?

I understand that typically title companies like to see in the estate probated and a legal representative appointed before a property can be conveyed from the estate to another party. However I have seen rare instances, many years ago, where a title company allowed affidavits from heirs to take the place of an actual probate.

Any national title companies out there that might allow such a thing? In my particular case, the decedent passed away as a resident of Mississippi but owns a property in New jersey. Thanks in advance.
