Hi,
When probate has been granted does the property then have to be transferred at the titles office
and the deceased name removed from title before a sale can be completed.
Thankyou

Yes. Once probate is granted you need to lodge a Transmission document to transfer the title into the name of the personal representatives. They can then deal with the property.
