If you’re asking about the best way to transfer property to heirs, you either are someone who is planning your estate, or you are an executor/administrator seeking to transfer property out of an estate and to its rightful heirs.
If you belong to the former category, you can create a will or trust that provides for heirs to inherit the property in question. You also could use what is called a transfer-on-death deed, which would allow you to maintain ownership of the property until your death, after which point, ownership automatically would transfer to the heirs you named on the deed. Another option, albeit a less desirable one, would be for you to do nothing, as your estate would transfer to your heirs under the laws of intestate succession if you were to die without a will.
If you are an executor/administrator looking to transfer property to heirs, you can generally either sell the property in question and distribute the resulting earnings to heirs, or you could transfer the property to heirs by deeding it to them. Remember that if the property in question has been in the family for some time, certain heirs could have attachments to it. Before you sell it, it would be good idea to discuss your decision with them.
