The appointed executor of an estate is entitled to compensation, usually set by law in most states and jurisdictions.
sell the estate cover the expenses then buy it back with a parcial loan
Yes, particularly if the will states that the funeral expenses are to be paid by the estate, a very common clause.
The executor can make a claim against the estate for expenses. The probate court will have to approve. The expenses have to be reasonable and normal.
The estate of the owner must be probated in order for title to the real estate to pass to the heirs, or, for an estate representative to convey legal title to any buyer. When the estate is probated the court will appoint an Executor if there is a will or an Administrator if there is no will. The court will issue Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration. Those letters give the estate representative the authority to settle the estate according to the provisions in the will or/and the state probate laws, under the supervision of the court. The debts of the estate must be paid before any property or proceeds from a sale can be distributed to the heirs. In the case of an Executor, the real estate can be sold only if that power was granted in the will or by a license issued by the court. An Administrator must obtain a license to sell from the court. Since the estate representative has the power and authority to sell the real estate, and the authority over the estate, there should be no question regarding how to 'collect expenses' after the sale of the property. The expenses should be deducted before the proceeds are distributed. If the Executor or Administrator has distributed the proceeds prematurely, they must get funds back to pay the expenses or they will be personally responsible for paying those expenses due to their mishandling of the estate. Remember, the debts of the estate must, by law, be paid before any property can be distributed. If the house was sold by the heirs after the estate had been settled in probate, the proceeds should not have been distributed by the sibling who represented the family in the sale until the expenses were deducted. The person who handled the sale will be held personally responsible for paying the expenses incurred by the sale and they may have to sue their siblings for reimbursement.
If an executor acted in bad faith then you can take the executor to court to force them to repay the value of the car to the estate.
My husband does not contribute towards the mortgage, bills, shopping or expenses for the children because he says he has no money. I recently found out that in a foreign bank account he has thousands stashed away. Can I sue him for back payment of all expenses? I have all documented evidence of my family expenses.
I don't believe you have to give it back because you paid for it unless you are willing to give it back and if the other family is willing to give you your money back and any other expenses you made.
You won't get money back in taxes, you will get to subtract your medical expenses from your taxes. This will lower the amount of taxes you pay.
Sounds like there's a Will and certain items are not in the estate. He can ask. But, the item might have been given (or taken) more than two years ago. If you've recently taken something (and other family members know you have it) you probably should give it back. Maybe you should have a meeting with the others and find out whether they are giving items back to the estate.
Yes if she follows the right steps. She should file for a lien for the arrearages through the family court and file the lien against the estate as soon as possible.
Reimbursment means to incur expenses on company behalf and then get back the incurred expenses from company.
It depends on why the heir paid cash to the estate. If it was a loan to the estate, it should be paid back first. If it was to pay the estate back for a loan, it is divided up like the rest of the assets.
