When someone dies with no will or known family, their property passes to the Crown as ownerless property.
It can be any kind of property, like buildings, money or personal possessions.
You could be entitled to a share of a deceased relative’s property if you’re a relative.
And the Government updates a list daily with these unclaimed estates – so that those applicable can claim an estate.
There are hundreds of estates of people who were either born or died within the Hampstead and Highgate area which are unclaimed.
