Probate - Spouse Still in Home also on Title

@Sharon Vornholt  @Rick H. @Mark Pedroza  I'm finding a lot of properties where the spouse has died and the other spouse still lives in the house. What do you do in that case? I don't want to assume they will still live there, but they probably will, especially if they have been there since the 70s, 80s, 90s etc...

Also, what happens if both the husband and wife are on the title (or two people and one is the PR)? Are there some cases where they still may have to sell? If so, how do I go about finding that out?

Should I just send them letters anyway? Or should I keep it as a later lead?

What do you all do?

Thanks!
