<p class="MsoNormal">Corporation was dissolved about 20 years ago. Real property was owned by Corp. at time of dissolution but was never transferred out of Corp.’s name. Sole shareholder held 100% interest in Corp. Shareholder has now died and the real property
needs to be transferred either into shareholder’s estate or directly to beneficiaries of shareholder’s estate per his Will. Title company is drawing a blank on who needs to sign what to clear title from Corp. to Estate or directly to beneficiaries. Maybe just
accompany the PR Deed with an affidavit signed by PR setting out the above facts and reasons as to where the real property rightfully goes?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I imagined there would be a statute to cover this as I’m sure it’s not the first time it has occurred but I’m not having any luck finding one. <o:p></o:p></p>
