Before the name change process is initiated, the rental agreement is to be transferred from the original tenant to his legal heirs, if his legal heirs are not interested to get the property transferred to their names, then the tenancy cannot be transferred to any other person as per their whims.

The legal heirs have the right to acquire the tenancy on behalf of the original tenant who is reported to have died.

If the legal heirs do not transfer the rental agtreement to their name then they forfeit the tenancy in the property.

You may consult a local lawyer and proceed with the proposed settlement by an amicable manner.

Since the tenant is stated to have died, his LRs will have to execute fresh rent agreement with landlord, if both parties are willing and agree to continue tenancy.
