Will the IRS take the home left to my brother in a will? How?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
The IRS may take the house or put a lien on it for back taxes. Perhaps the better question is can your brother-in-law afford the expenses of owning a house if he's so deeply in debt? If she's adamant about him having the house, perhaps she should put it in a trust with him as the beneficiary.

How does one stop a court proceeding?

Estate Planning lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
Ask your attorney. If you don't have an attorney, get one. This is way too complicated for a novice to handle on their own.

Can I refuse to inherit a house with an underwater mortgage?

David Goldman
Answered by attorney David Goldman
Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of David M. Goldman PLLC
You can refuse the inheritance. In some cases you might have to file a disclaimer within 9 months. Regardless, the debt responsibility is not yours, unless you co-signed on the note. Often people inherit the homes, rent them while the foreclosure process is going on, and then abandon them with no liability. You should review your specific circumstances with an estate planning lawyer who is familiar with foreclosure defense.
