Yes, the executor has that ability. They are responsible for the property, including who has the use of it. They have to maintain the property and pay taxes and keep it in repair.
If your brother is executor of the estate, yes.
No, unless you have a power of attorney from your brother. And if your brother is deceased, you would have to be the executor of the estate and have the court's permission.
Only if he is the executor of the estate and has court authorization.
The person who owns a house can sell it whenever they wish. The executor only controls property of someone who has passed away.
You can't be executor of an estate if the individual is still living. However, the executor can make people move out of the house.
Yes.
My brother's hamster did.
The living trust has a trustee, not an executor. The will is a separate process and you would be the executor.
Not only does the beneficiary have to wait for the probate of the will, but will most likely have to wait until the executor is satisfied that the house does not need to be sold to pay any debts of the estate. Until administration of an estate is complete, the executor has the right to possession of all estate property, including the house. If the executor wants to, he/she can let the beneficiary in the house. But even there, the person appointed as executor has no power to allow that until the will has been probated. This is because that person has no power to act as an executor until the will is probated.
That depends on lots of factors. If she is the executor of the estate , and the house is not explicitly addressed in a will, she can sell it and distribute the proceeds according to the will. You can always contest the actions of the executor. If she was left the house by terms of a will, you are not entitled to any of the proceeds. If you and she were left the house together, then you are entitled to a portion of the proceeds, and to a say in whether or not the house is sold in the first place.
The executor of the estate can sell the house at any time. The renunciation really deals with who gets the money from the sale. The executor can also transfer the house to someones name, but they have to insure all the debts are paid. Consult an attorney in your area for details.
should the executor have a key to late parents house if a brother lives in it. The will as never been settled due to a disagreement between siblings parents passed away twelve and thirteen years ago. Also should i take an inventory of items in the house which i have tried to do brother says no ' Brother living house says he's sold Doulton Figuars i need answers because i have to answer to the rest of the family. Brother pays no rent and thinks I'm not being fair to him and he turns nasty with me each time i bring the matter up. The house as to be sold one day when my brother departs from this world so therefore i have to get things in the right order, many thanks Margaret
