What do we do as their children to claim some type of ownership to this property?

Estate Planning lawyer at The Law Office of Nathan Wagner
If the deed says that they were joint tenants with right of survivorship, then the whole property would go to your uncle (because he is the only surviving person named in the deed). If the deed says they were tenants-in-common, then you will need a probate court to distribute the property. You have to look at your grandmother's will and your father's will (and other estate planning documents) to see how the property should be distributed. This distribution could be complicated, so you may want to consult with an attorney.

A complicated Will leaving it to him in a trust for his benefit will better protect the house against the IRS (and any other creditors he may have).

If her son has an IRS debt, they can go after the home if it put in his name. I would recommend putting the home in a trust that will protect the home until he is ready to take ownership after the mother's death. This should be done while she is living.
