how do you know if your land is heired property

Posted on: 31st Dec, 2008 05:15 am
My greatgrandfather owned land he passed and it went to his wife. Before his wife passed the deed said to his wife and her kids at law. One of her sons stayed there along with his wife and they lived their for thirty something years. The son dies and the deed goes to his wife's name. Before she passes she tranfers the property to her two kid as a gift. Some so called heirs from my greatgrandfather's kids are now trying to claim property and haven't paid any taxes ever on this property and has never stepped foot on property. Who owns property
no matter how many answers you receive on this forum, you need a good lawyer to represent you to dig into this and provide some answers.

you're talking a few generations here...someone needs to do a title search and perhaps dig up probate records (if applicable) in order to render any kind of reasonable decision on who ownership vests in.

Hi edna!

Welcome to forums!

If your uncle was one of the owners of the property, then your uncle's adopted daughter can claim your uncle's share of the property.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

Legal matters need legal opinions...there are far too few legal experts on this forum to provide anyone with the precise kind of advice needed. You should always consult with a legal expert (read..."lawyer") when you're dealing with matters of inheritance, deeds to property, title issues, etc.

hi michelle,

if the land is in the name of the person filing bankruptcy, then he will have to list it as his asset and the bankruptcy trustee can sell it off in order to pay off his creditors.

thanks
