Founder/Realtor/Author

Tammy B. Legette is a licensed real estate broker in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ghana with 26+ years of experience specializing in inherited property and estate real estate.
She is the founder of Inherited Property Navigator LLC, a navigation and education platform built to guide families through probate, deed fraud, heirship disputes, and estate property decisions. She holds the CIPN designation - Certified Inherited Property Navigator - and is the author of "From Death to Disposition: The Deed That Shouldn't Exist," available on Amazon.

Tammy's expertise is rooted in real experience. She personally navigated a deed fraud case involving a family estate where fraud was proven in court, a criminal conviction was entered, and the fraudulent property record remained. That experience drove her to build a platform, launch a national deed fraud reform petition, and write the book that families and real estate professionals now use as a resource.

She also brings 14 years of mortgage background and serves as President of Flower of Life House of Healing, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Mount Holly, NC. Tammy operates in the Charlotte metro area and is known for bridging the gap between real estate expertise and the legal and emotional reality families face when inherited property is involved.

Her signature talk, "The Deed That Shouldn't Exist," is designed for real estate professionals, investors, estate attorneys, and families who need to understand deed fraud, probate reality, and generational wealth protection at a practical, actionable level.

His second wife opened the estate fraudulently claiming he had no children — erasing eight grandchildren from the record. A deed was then prepared January 2025, held until March 2025, and filed with a notarized signature of a man already deceased. That triggered a criminal conviction. The property record still wasn't corrected.**Key education points c…
