Heirs Signature Needed

Posted on: 13th Aug, 2009 12:17 am
My mother passed in 2007. I was told that there was a living trust. I also was told by relatives that they believed my mom and stepdads house was held in joint tenancy. In my moms last days I askd her if my stepfather could sell the house. She informed me that my stepfather could not sale the house without me and my brothers signature. How could this be possible?
Hi Tamara,

If your mother has transferred her share of the property to you and your brother, then your step-father will not be able to sell off the property without your signatures. You must be having the property deed with you. You should contact an attorney and check out your rights regarding the property. He will be the best person to help you in this regard.

Take care.

what i don't get is what happened between 2007 and 2009?

sara suggested you sit with your attorney and get some concrete facts. do you have an attorney? has anything been done with the estate since your mom's passing? too many questions here.
