Administering the Estate Generally, if an individual dies with assets in his or her sole name, probate will be required. In addition, even if an individual dies with an original last will and testament and no assets in his or her sole name, the original will must be filed with the Register of Wills office.
If the decedent owned any assets in his or her sole name, including real property, vehicles, bank accounts, stocks or personal property, the only method to transfer or convey the asset to the heir is through the probate or estate administration process.
