If the person whom the house has been willed to has no problem with you selling it, I don't see why not.
What if there was a will and the house was deeded to the wife what about the contents of the house?
The owner of a deeded home can get the home back if the home is in his or her name. The taxes must be paid on a deeded home in order for it be a clear deed.
You will need to talk to the executor of your mother's Will. If this is you, you will need to see whom the house is willed to - if it is your sisters, a decent estate lawyer can draw up the paperwork relatively quickly. If there is no Will, or the house is otherwise deeded or has a lien on it, things will get complicated quickly and you will need to contact an estate lawyer.
No, deeded is not a word whoever asked this question because deeded is already pural. Of course "deeded" is a word. The asker is referring to the verb "deed", not the noun "deed" hence its pluraliity has no bearing as a verb cannot be plural. "The grandfather deeded his house to his grandson."
If the person lacked capacity or was unduly influenced, the conveyance can be attacked. It'd be expensive, though.
Yes. In fact, you are actually buying the land and the house is attached to it.
If lifetime dowry is the same as 'Life Estate', yes, that's how they go. There may be limits to what you can do to or with the house and land, but you can live the rest of your life there. You need an attorney's help if you are having problems with your arrangement.
It depends on the laws of the state where the property is located and the specific details of the will. Typically, if the spouse leaves their share of the house to the children, they would have a legal right to sell their portion, but they might need approval or cooperation from the surviving spouse or executor of the estate to complete the sale. It's advisable to consult with a real estate attorney to understand the options and legal requirements in this situation.
Yes. A life tenant would need to sign her consent to the sale of the property.
