My grandfather, who passed away in 1999, left a registered will in 1995 detailing how his property should be divided amongst his five sons. My father, the third son, was assigned a specific portion. Unfortunately, he never transferred the property into his name or paid any taxes on it before he passed away in 2007. As his only child, I’m seeking guidance on how to get the property transferred to my name. I possess a copy of the registered will, but lack any other property documents. I’m currently estranged from my uncles, making communication difficult.

You need to obtain a succession certificate from the court, proving your father’s inheritance from the 1995 will. You’ll also need to pay any outstanding property taxes and transfer fees to officially register the property in your name. You can consult a lawyer for assistance in navigating this legal process, especially considering your estranged relationship with your uncles.
