Multiple heirs and a sale mandate: what are your options?

Discover the right way to sell an inherited property held by several heirs, the legal requirements, and how to avoid common family conflicts.

Only one heir’s signature is not enough — agreement from all co-owners remains mandatory.

The legal framework

After inheritance, property enters joint ownership. Each heir owns a share of the whole, and major financial decisions — like selling — require collective consent.

Managing disagreement between heirs

Heir disagreement is common; mediation can solve most issues. If not, Article 815-5-1 enables a judicial authorization to sell when a two-thirds majority agrees.
