Answer: If the survivorship was set forth in the deed, a joint tenancy, the passing of title to the other joint owners is not an inheritance. In Massachusetts is would be a non-probate asset.
The right to survivorship of the house takes precedence and it never gets into the estate.
When a house has four names on the deed with the right of survivorship, the ownership automatically transfers to the surviving owners upon the death of one owner, regardless of the mortgage situation. The mortgage remains attached to the property, and the surviving owners are still responsible for it. The lender may require the surviving owners to refinance the mortgage or take other actions, but the property itself is not affected by the deceased owner's mortgage obligation.
That will depend on the deed and what the ownership is. If it is a right of survivorship, no, it is not a part of the estate. If they are listed as tenants in common, yes, the estate has a claim to part of the property.
The proceeds of a house sale should typically be split among the owners based on their ownership percentage or as agreed upon in a legal document such as a co-ownership agreement.
You will have to check the deed to the property. If they are listed as Joint Owners with Right of Survivorship, no, your wife now owns the property. If they are listed as Tenants in Common, yes.
