If i bought my house from my parents can my siblings take it from me when they die?
GermaineI have been taking care of my parents for the past 15 years, before they got too sick, they transfered the deed in my name and I assumed their payments. Since then I have refinanced once and made improvements to the home and have lived here with my spouse and kids. Unfoutunatly, my father has passed and my mother is on her way, should I be worried that my siblings will take this home from me?
ElizebethJust how would they "take" it from you?Do they have unrecorded private mortgages from money they lent to your parents or some other type of lien on the house or property?Do you have proof that the granting deed was properly executed and recorded?Were your parents the only two owners when they "transfered" the property to you?If you now own it with clear title, your siblings can't just take it from you. It's yours.But if there is an issue with the title or your siblings have a lien of some sort ... you have a real problem.
Changno, they can`t take it from you. your name is on the deed.,
ArturoIf the deed is in your name, your siblings cannot take it from you-it no longer belongs to your Mom and Dad. It belongs to you and is not part of their estate.
BudFirst I am sorry to hear about your father and mother.Second Get a Lawyer!!! Now, Families turn funny when there is money involved!
EdwardoNo. If the title was recorded in your name, you own the property and no one can take it from you (except the government by eminent domain). Check the registry of deeds to make sure that the title was properly recorded in your name.
JoEasiest is to get a new will made up..where everyone is mentioned to be unmentioned...so get a lawyer or nortary that specializes..it should be cheap..and they can explain..why everyone has to be mentioned to be unmentioned...you need a new will..it is cheap..and just..should be done..then you have 100% assurance...(look in the section of "undue influence" and get a new will for you peace)..
