<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Timeshares are often considered real property, requiring deeds to transfer. If that is the case, regardless of the value, they may not be wrong in asking for
full probate. The small estate affidavit is technically only for personal property, and to my understanding, a “lack of probate affidavit” is a construct of the title companies, and not a substitute for probate being legally required, except that the title
companies will often accept them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have a PC who had a small estate, has been handling everything with a lack of probate affidavit. Only property is a Wyndham time share. They wrote to her demanding full probate and letters testamentary authenticating her as the executor. <o:p></o:p></p>

timeshare. <o:p></o:p></p>
