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

Answered by attorney Edward L. Armstrong (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
If the son to whom she wishes to leave property owes the IRS $30,000, in all probability they will assess a lien against the property and ultimately take it, sell it and apply the proceeds against the tax owed.

If my Poppa who has recently died, put his half of a property him and his sister own in his will,does that mean his sister will have to sell the house

Damien Matthew Bosco
Answered by attorney Damien Matthew Bosco (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Damien Bosco, P.C.
Hello. My name is Damien. I am a Trusts & Estates attorney in New York City practicing in the New York City metropolitan area. When one of the joint owners of property dies, that does not necessarily mean that the surviving owner has to sell their share of the property. However, the heirs of the owner that died can attempt to force the sale of the property through a partition and sale action depending on how the property was originally held (if legally held as tenants in common as explained below). So, it is not automatic that the property has to be put up for sale. Either one or the other owners can buy out the other owner or owners or there is a sale to a third party. If the owners do not agree to the sale, one of the owners can attempt to petition the court to force the sale of the property in a partition and sale action. Note that when there are multiple owners of properties, the owners can own the property as tenants in common or joint tenants of rights of survivorship. If the deed says with joint tenants with rights of survivorship, then the surviving owner inherits the property. If the deed does not say joint tenants with rights of survivorship, then it is presumed to hold as tenants in common wherein each owner's heirs inherit their share. If you need any assistance, a New York Trusts & Estates Attorney could help you.

How do I get money from my mother's account if I am the beneficiary?

Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Estate Planning lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
The answer to your question depends on several factors. For example, are you named as the "pay on death" beneficiary of the account? If not, did your mother leave a Will? Are you the only beneficiary of the estate? If there is no Will, the size of her estate may affect whether you will need to open a probate to collect the account or whether you can do a simplified proceeding. I recommend you speak with a probate attorney to discuss the answers to your questions and determine your options.
