A transfer on death deed (TODD) is a legal document that allows a person to transfer ownership of their property after they die. By using a TODD, a person can transfer the property directly without going through probate. This procedure can be used for real property like land, houses, buildings, etc.

No. In Texas, an estate is not a legal entity. Therefore, it cannot sue or be sued. A court will need to appoint a personal representative of an estate, acting in his or her capacity.
Going through the probate process in Texas courts can be costly when someone dies. A small estate affidavit can avoid a lot of the probate costs for the survivor handling the deceased person's estate.

Time limits for a declaration of heirship The current law says that there are no time limits to bring a suit to determine heirship. Before that law, there was a general four-year limitation period. But, the current law may only apply to estates where the decedent died on or after January 1, 2014.
