Hi there, my partners father recently passed away and his will names my partner as Executor and Trustee. He leaves a property. does my partner need to apply for probate, or is that not necessary as he is names as a Trustee? I would add, there are no trusts in place. the property is worth ~£300k.
I believe probate will be needed but looking on Google there are conflicting answers!
Thanks for any clarity you can offer.
