My grandmother owned a property. Passed away, now it's in my mother's name and my uncles name. The house has been there since 1930. Can this property be sold by my uncle without my mother's consent? the house is paid for.

@Marcus Haywood from my understanding of probate law if it was left to BOTH the uncle and your mom it can not be sold with your mother's consent. @Ilidio Santana the property should be owned by the estate or in this case may have been transferred to the husband if he is the one selling it. If it's for sale then more then likely the party who is entitled to sell it is entitled to sell it. This is why you get title insurance to make sure your getting a clean title. You should always consult with an attorney and the title company you are working with to purchase the property in BOTH situations.
