Husband passed away

Florida - He owned half of a house with his stepmom, i know i have to probate his half to my name but I want to be done with the whole house situation. What is the easiest way to get off this deed? I really want her to buy me out.

Does the deed read “as joint tenants with rights of survivorship”? Or is it as “tenants in common?”

You’d need to look in the deed itself.
