New York Surrogate's Court generally places an SCPA § 805 (3) restriction on the sale or transfer of real property of the estate. The Law Office of Bryan J. Hutchinson, PLLC is experienced in helping our clients lift the SCPA § 805 (3) restriction by preparing a petition to lift the restriction, obtaining consent from all distributees, preparing a proposed decree, preparing the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance Form ET-30, Application for Release of Estate Tax Lien and ET-117 Form, Release of Estate Tax Lien and preparing a New York Citation to issue to all distributees who have not to consent to the sale or transfer.

If you are the administrator of an estate, it is important that you hire an attorney to properly obtain a release of liens because you may be held personally liable for unpaid estate tax up to the value of the assets that were distributed before the NYS estate tax was paid in full.
