I am 1/3 beneficiary to deceased Mother’s home.It sold and the executor is demanding by social by tomorrow.Must I give that to him?

Terry Lynn Garrett
Answered by attorney Terry Lynn Garrett
Estate Planning lawyer at The Garrett Law Firm, PLLC
What is your "social"? Do you mean your social security number?  That seems unnecessary.  The title company handling the sale should simply issue a check in your name.  It could ask for your bank routing and account number and send a wire transfer or electronic check instead.  But no one needs to have your social security number to make a distribution of your share of the estate or to report that that has been done.  At most, the executor needs you to sign a Receipt and Release once you have received the funds and anything else due you from the estate.

RE: NJ Law when heir inherits a home with a 2nd mortgage.

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
The answers to this question depend on the mortgage, and the terms of the will.  The will may stipulate that the heirs take the property subject to the mortgage.  If that's the case, the heirs can take over the mortgage payments, but technically, the heirs should have the mortgage redone in their name.  Changing the title to the property could cause an acceleration of the mortgage and require immediate payment.  A bigger question becomes, what happened to the proceeds of the second mortgage?  Did the decedent take that in a lump payment and it went to other heirs?   Can the first and second mortgages be combined and refinanced?  Rates are good now and it might be worth your while to qualify and re-do the whole thing.

In New Jersey you will only pay estate tax on any amount over $675,000 and inheritance tax if you are not a Class A beneficiary. You are a Class A beneficiary as a child of the decedent.
