Hello. My name is Damien. I am a Trusts & Estates attorney in New York City practicing in the New York City metropolitan area. You do not mention whether your husband has living children. If so, you may have to open an estate proceeding. If he has no living children, you would inherit both properties by what is called "operation of law." If the motor home has a value of $25,000 or less, it automatically transfers to the surviving spouse. If the surviving spouse wishes to transfer ownership, according to the DMV, you must print the decedent’s name in the “Seller’s Name (Print in Full)” section on the back of the Title and sign their name in the “Seller’s Signature” Section followed by the words “as surviving Spouse”. For the house, you would file a petition with the county property records department to transfer the title into your name. If he had children, then you may have to open an estate proceeding if the house is worth more than $50,000. If you need any assistance, a New York Trusts & Estates Attorney could help you. If you wish to speak on the phone about it, you can call Damien Bosco, P.C. at (646) 452-7082 or email me at DamienBoscoEsq@gmail.com
