Grant of Probate
When someone dies, a legal document must be obtained which provides an Executor with the authority to collect in and deal with a Deceased person's assets. This document is called a grant of probate and is issued by the Probate Registry. Once obtained the various assets and liabilities of the Deceased can then be collected and the estate administered. An original grant of probate will always be requested by most banks and building societies if the Deceased left assets in excess of £15,000, while a Grant of probate will always be required to sell a property.
