Re: RICK: Probate question....In Reply to: RICK: Probate question.... posted by jnn on April 01, 2009 at 11:06 AM : Rick - I've got a probate-type question and wanted your thoughts please: : I found a house in Sacramento that's in default - NOD recorded two months ago. I talked to a neighbor who said that the owner/trustor died about a year ago and had no heirs, so the State has taken over her personal property and the house and has been doing some upkeep - mostly yard and pool maintenance. There appears to be quite a bit of equity. : What is the effect of an owner who dies without heirs and the property escheats to State? Any advice on how to proceed and who to talk to at State of California about the property? : Thanks in advance! Jot down the address and make the trip to the assessor's office downtown on H St. to confirm owner. He/she should also be on record on Grant Deed. If probate has started, Notice of Petition to Administer Estate would be started by public administrator of county were decedent had property. (Sacramneto County) You would'nt be talking to the State of California but to the county administrator. (Sacramento) Rick could shed more light on what to do but this is what I would do to start...
