Buyer says title work is pending after owner’s death; board delays action on 4817 Mary B. Lane
Summary
For case 25Dash003241 (4817 Mary B. Lane) the buyer, Brett Stewart, said the seller passed away with no will so title clearance took longer; the board untabled the case and agreed to take no action while title is cleared.
The board untabled case 25Dash003241. Inspector Terry Dollar reported the property is in probate after the death of an owner (Gaye), and staff said a sale is pending but title issues have delayed closing. Brett Stewart, the purchaser under contract, told the board that he switched title companies from 1st Texas Title to Stellar Title of Frisco and expects a title commitment back later in the week after the new company ran a new title search.
Stewart said he has budgets prepared and contractors lined up and asked whether an affidavit of heirship questionnaire would be acceptable to the new title company; Stewart said the new title company indicated they would accept that approach. The board agreed to take no action while title work completes and to revisit the case if title does not clear.
