<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I have a probate where one heir wishes to purchase the decedent's home. Is there any reason this can't be done in one step - i.e. a deed from the PR (as pr and as individual) to the heir - rather than PR to
 all heirs and then all heirs to the purchasing heir? It's a small estate with two sibling heirs who get along well. The purchasing heir will take a smaller share of other assets and give a promissory note for the remaining balance with a relatively short payoff.
 It seems simple, I'm wondering if there are any tax or other consequences I may be missing.<u></u><u></u></p>
