Suggest you seek the assistance of a probate attorney. Looks like no will is in place; if there is an estate, then a probate of the estate will be required.

Can you make any request you want in a will?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Yes, a person can choose to whom they want to leave their possessions and what conditions, behaviors, or actions are required before the beneficiary receives anything. However, you can't require the beneficiary to do anything illegal or dangerous. Some people create a trust instead of giving money outright when they worry that the beneficiary will squander the gift. In a trust, a responsible person or company controls the assets in the trust and doles out the proceeds to the beneficiary according to the directions in the will.

What will happen if my mother's life estate is to be sold and do we have to pay her any of the proceeds?

Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You should hire counsel and possibly a CPA and an actuary. There will capital gains based upon the adjusted basis in the property. You mother will be entitled to receive the value of her life estate. This is not a simple questions. I urge you first seek out counsel where the property is located and then consider if both a CPA and an actuary are needed.
