- Q. The last 5 yrs I've been paying the mortgage and taxes on my deceased gf property. Her son never took it to probate
- A: I cannot imagine you could get title to the real estate without a court order. A deed transferring title from one owner to another must be signed either by the current owner (obviously deceased in your situation) or someone who has been given legal authority to sign on behalf of the current owner. Just paying a mortgage and taxes doesn’t give someone title/ownership. But you likely can be reimbursed for the money you paid. You should see a probate attorney and seek to become the Administrator of your girlfriend’s estate. Your lawyer can guide you through the probate process. Best wishes!
- Q. I am 70 yrs. old and live on $716.00 a month I have some questions about my Mom's trust since she has passed. Thanks.
- A: The transaction you propose sounds simple but, unfortunately, it is more complicated than it seems. Depending on how the transaction is structured, there could be tax consequences. As a result, it is difficult for a lawyer to answer your question without going into various options and the tax consequences of each. I understand you are on a limited budget, so you should see if there are any pro bono services in your area. You may want to start by calling your County's Bar Association and asking for recommendations. I also understand your concern about being homeless but, if you end up being required to sell the home, depending on what your mother's trust says, you could get money from ... Read More
- Q. we live in California but my mom has a home in Oregon and would like to put my name on the deed but can't go to Oregon
- A: Your mother needs to see an estate planning lawyer because there are tax consequences to transferring real estate to a child during the parent's lifetime, and it's likely your mother needs a Trust, not a Will. But a lawyer cannot say definitively one way or the other without first talking to your mother, and learning both her goals and what assets she has. Best wishes.
