Does my son have to pay the taxes on the home transferred to him while I’m living but sold it after I passed?

Answered by attorney James T Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
Property taxes are assessed against the property. Whoever owns the property must pay them or make arraingments to pay them (by leaseing or selling on land contract) So if your son owns the property to protect his equity he must pay the taxes. If the taxes are not paid for several years the property will be sold at one of the annual county tax sales.

I am on my grandparents checking account, they both passed away, am I entitled to use this money?

Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Estate Planning lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
This answer may be oversimplified, because I have no information about how the account is titled, whether you contributed funds to it, whether there are other "heirs" who might make a claim for the funds as part of the estate, etc. If you are a co-owner of this account, then as the surviving account-holder, the funds may be yours. The account wouldn't go through probate if there is still a living owner of the account. I recommend you consult with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.

What are the rights of a sister in law in a property after being sold?

Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
There are a lot of different angles to your question. Basically, it seems to me that living in property and paying only the property tax might be a pretty good deal depends on the property. You don't say who these women are married to heirs / owners of the property? (A person has heirs; property has owners). Anyway, a lot more details are needed to give a cogent answer, but here's a practical thought how much money are we talking about? Have they lived there 10 years, so that they're looking for $50,000 in property tax? Or a year, so they're looking for maybe a 10th of that? Also, have they moved out? Or are the owners going to need to evict them to get them out? If they are still in the property, and each is looking for a couple of thousand dollars, then make a "cash for keys" deal they move out and take all their stuff with them, and the owners will pay the property tax.
