What do we do as their children to claim some type of ownership to this property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
The answer depends on how title is held. If it is held as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, then your father's interest died with him and there is nothing else that would need to be done. Your uncle would presumably be the sole owner, at this point. If title was held as tenants in common, then probate would be necessary for your father and perhaps your mother's estate, as well. It probably makes sense to have an attorney review this entire situation with you.

Do we have to wait for my brother to sell my mothers home before reading the will?

Answered by attorney Darin Christensen (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Bullivant Houser Bailey PC
No. The power of attorney ceases to have legal effect on your mother's death. He has no legal authority to do anything using the power of attorney. You should proceed to have the will probated and the personal representative (executor) can sell the home.
