The procedures for real estate inheritance must go through the process of housing appraisal, inheritance notarization, and application for property rights registration. For a house that has received the "Real Estate Ownership Certificate", when the owner of the house dies, its legal heirs can apply for the registration of the inheritance of the house. The general steps are as follows:

1. Housing appraisal: First of all, the market value of the house must be evaluated by the appraisal company. The appraisal company will make a professional analysis and property price appraisal according to important factors such as the road section, sitting direction, floor, and age of the house, and determine the accurate market value of the property.

2. Inheritance notarization: The applicant shall go to the notary office where the house is located to handle the inheritance notarization and receive the inheritance notarial certificate. When notarizing, the death certificate of the owner of the house, the list of legal heirs issued by the legal authority, and the will (if any) made by the original owner of the house must be provided, and the original will should also be submitted.

If some of the legal heirs voluntarily renounce their inheritance rights, they must issue a certificate of renunciation of their property commitment. 3. Housing surveying and mapping: The applicant must apply to the real estate surveying and mapping department for the surveying and mapping of the housing area or the transfer of drawings, and receive the surveying and mapping results or drawings in order to go through the property rights registration procedures.

4. Inheritance registration: The applicant shall apply for inheritance registration procedures at the real estate trading center with real estate ownership certificate, inheritance notarial certificate, housing surveying and mapping and other certificates. After filling in the "Application Form for Real Estate Property Registration" and submitting the above information, the case handling personnel will accept the case and issue a receipt.

After all the information is verified, the real estate certificate of the changed owner will be issued. 5. Other information to be submitted: If the ownership of the house and other matters are subject to court judgment, ruling or mediation, the court judgment, ruling or mediation must be submitted.

If the house is found to have been rebuilt or has illegal construction after on-site surveying and mapping, it must be submitted to the planning department for construction review or decision.
