Currently, 18 estates in Sutton have passed to the Crown as ownerless property, often due to individuals dying without leaving a will.
You have 12 years to claim an estate from the date it was taken by the Crown, but after that, you won't earn interest on the money.
The list of unclaimed estates is updated daily on the Government's website, making it simple to check if you're entitled to a deceased relative's estate.
When someone dies without a will, their estate goes to relatives in a specific order, starting with their spouse, then children, and so forth.
