If the property was held by the decedent and that other person (and others) as joint tenants with the right of survivorship full ownership passed to the other joint tenant(s) when the decedent died. You cannot change that operation of law. As to the cost and labor relating to the upkeep of the property and the 'agreement' with the decedent, you would need to file a suit in equity in the appropriate court if that other person isn't paying their fair share. You need to consult with an attorney who is an expert in real estate law to discuss your options and determine what you should ask the court to do for you.

Can an ex wife put a lien on her ex husband's inherited property from deceased mother?
Let me see if I've got this right... the ex-husband inherited property from his deceased mother. If the ex-wife has no claim to that property, she cannot put a lien on that property. Now if she were awarded a portion of that property in the settlement, and agreed to sell her portion to her husband, she could retain a lien on it until it was paid off, but I'm not getting the impression that's the case here. Basically, if it was never yours to begin with, you have absolutely no justification to try putting a lien on it.
