Closed a six-heir estate across two family branches
Greenville, SC
The situation
Multi-heir property in Greenville with six total heirs split across two family branches. Two separate lots, fractional interests that had never been documented correctly, and a deed chain that had drifted out of sync with the actual probate distributions.
The complication
The probate distributions and the deeds had drifted out of sync: the wrong heirs, the wrong fractions, and only one of the two lots referenced, compounded by an error in a later correction. It took three rounds of corrective deeds to rebuild the chain accurately for all six heirs across both lots.
The outcome
Final corrective deeds were recorded with the county, correctly conveying every heir's share across both lots, each individually signed and notarized to South Carolina requirements.
