When a person dies without a will, their property is considered to be "intestate." In such cases, state laws determine the distribution of the deceased's assets, typically favoring close relatives. Generally, the property will pass to the deceased's spouse, children, or other family members according to the intestacy laws of the jurisdiction. An administrator may be appointed by the court to manage the estate and distribute the assets accordingly.
