A person who is granted a life estate has the right to the use and possession of the property for the duration of their natural life. They are responsible for upkeep and maintenance. Upon their death the life tenancy is extinguished.
If you mean deed to daughter, with mom reserving a life estate, then mom owns a life estate, remainder to daughter. Mom has the right to live in the house, has the duty to maintain it, has the duty to pay taxes on it. If there's a mortgage, mom has to pay the interest. Daughter has to pay reductions in principal. Neither has the duty to insure it, but if mom insures it, mom gets the proceeds on any policy claim.
What does life rights mean on a deed.
That means the grantor, or some other person named by the grantor, has the right to the use and possession of the property for the duration of their natural life. The life estate can only be released by the life tenant in writing or by the death of the life tenant.
It depends on who gets the property after her life estate terminates. If the property was deeded to the children with life estate reserved for mom, then all she would need to do is transfer the life estate to the children as well. However, a life estate can also mean the property reverts to some other ownership, say, a charity or some other relatives. If the person who granted the deed with the life estate is still alive, perhaps a new deed can be created that will supersede the earlier one. Ask your real estate lawyer.
It depends on what you mean by "claim the estate." Each individual has an estate, not a deceased couple. Their estates would pass as outlined in their wills or applicable intestate laws.
A deed to a property specifies who owns the property. If the property belonged to someone who has died then the property (and the deed to it) become part of the dead persons estate. What happens to the estate is determined by the dead persons will. In view of this it is unclear what you mean by a property deed overriding a will - your question makes little sense.

If you mean a "Quit Claim Deed". Here's your answer.For instance if you own a house and you just want out of it, no money, just out. You would sign a Quit Claim Deed to transfer all of your "interest" in that home to another person, giving up your responsiblity or "interest" to the house. This is signed in front of a notary public and filed with the courts and the mortgager. You then are no longer responsible for the payments, the other party is now legally responible for the debt. If they do not pay, you have one year to make up the payments and have it returned to you. If you don't want to do this, it shows no reflection on your credit.goog Quit Claim Deeds are typically when a person is looking to purchase a certain property but for some reason the chain of title is unclear, leaving the possibility that some person who claims no interest in the property may actually have some legal interest in that property. The buyer will ask the "non-claiming" person to sign a Quit Claim Deed to officially acknowledge that he/she does not make any claim to title. This protects the buyer from the person later coming back & saying, "You know, I do want to claim an interest in that property, now that it is more valuable (for whatever reason)!"
