May I have only my name on the deed, but both my daughter and I on the mortgage?

Answered by attorney Christopher Emmanuel Benjamin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Barrister Firm, P.A.
Technically the lender required both borrowers to be owners if the property at the time the loan was approved and there is typically a clause in the mortgage that says that if the property is transferred to someone other than the borrowers, then the mortgage is due in full. Moreover, the second borrower is still on the hook for the loan, even if you transfer ownership completely to yourself. From a practical point, the lender typically will not default the loan upon transfer as long as it remains current.

Generally, yes. However, I would urge you to consult with an estate planning/real estate attorney in your area before taking any action.

Is it possible to contest this will?

Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
There are 2 grounds that are normally used when contesting a will. One is lack of competence. The other is undue influence, whereby a person close to him used their influence (usually in a diminished state) to essentially substitute their judgment for his. These issues often come up when someone changes their will close to death. You may want to investigate when the will was done, who drafted it, who was with him at the time and what drugs he was taking. Remember that as a niece, contesting the will and invalidating it doesn't mean that the estate will go to you!
