Do I have the right to go and see how much damage has occurred in my property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney D. Nathan Davis (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Davis Law Firm
As a a person with a remainder interest in the property, you have the right to see if the property is being properly maintained. A life tenant generally has a duty to maintain the property in the condition the property was in when the life estate began. You are not required to wait until your stepmother dies to find out if the property has been neglected, damaged or destroyed. You should not, however, go to the property without a Court Order.

If there are two personal representatives on a will, can one legally put the house on the market without the second person's signature?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Brian Haggerty (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
It doesn't matter who's named "on the will," the question is who was named by the Court to serve as personal representative. If two people are appointed Co-PRs, then both have to act unless one can claim an emergency, or that the other was unavailable. Signing a listing agreement to put the house on the market is easy, and realtors often don't pay much attention to the legal authority. It will get ugly when there's an offer to buy, and one co-PR can't bring the other to the table to complete the deal.

Who is in charge of the estate of a father dies with no will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Donald Keith Broad (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Broad Law Firm, LLC
In Indiana, if there is no will that names a Personal Representative ("person in charge") of the estate, then the Court appoints someone to fill that role. Usually it is a spouse, child, or some relative of the deceased, but it can be a live-in companion as well. I suggest that you contact an estate lawyer in your area to discuss how to request that the Court appoint a specific person as the Personal Representative of that estate.
