What happens to your sister’s share of a house when you die?
If you want your sister to have equal rights to the property, list her as a joint tenant with rights of survivorship. If either of you die, the share is transferred to the surviving sister. To hold a separate, unrelated share of the property, list her as a tenant in common. Upon death, your share passes to your heir.
Who is the heir to a deceased sister’s estate?
