Tenant in Common - Probate for death of Mother (2 years before Father)

My mother died in 2020. The estate passed to my Father. He subsequently passed in 2022. My sister and I obtained a Certificate of Probate for his estate. They owned an allotment, with it's own Title Deed - which I am told is Tenant in Common with both of them.&#160;<br> <br> We are trying to sell the allotment to a neighbour, but the Solicitor is not being very clear about what is required. |<br> <br> My question is, do we need to obtain a certificate of probate for my mothers estate?&#160;<br> <br> Is that Probate required by the Land Registry?<br> <br> With thanks.

Mark - probate is always required if a sole legal owner has died. Whilst land/property can 'pass' to someone through a will/intestacy that's not enough to then transfer the legal ownership.<br> From your post it's unclear as to which legal title you are referring to and if so who is the registered legal owner<br> You may find our online assisted guidance a useful resource to work out what's needed to transfer the legal ownership -&#160;<a href="https://customerhelp.landregistry.gov.uk/guide-external-start/?guideid=e0861516-8882-eb11-a812-000d3ad48f95">HMLR Guide: Start - External &#160;· HM Land Registry</a>
