Well, sugar, when a Habitat for Humanity homeowner kicks the bucket without a will, things can get a bit messy. The property will typically go through probate court to determine who inherits it according to state laws. It's always a good idea to have a will in place, so you don't leave your loved ones dealing with a legal headache after you're gone.

Do you have to hire a lawyer to purchase a relative's mineral rights?

It might be wise to. A lawyer will check that the relative has the right to sell the rights, and that there are no mortgages or loans on the property - which could come back to bite you after the purchase. A lawyer would also make certain that your purchase was legal and could not be contested by any other relatives who might try to make a claim on the property when the selling relative dies.

Why would someone have to put a house in probate to inherit it?

Putting a house in probate is necessary after the homeowner passes away if there is no living trust or co-owner named.

Probate is required to transfer the property title to the rightful heirs or beneficiaries.
