Is it customary that beneficiary decendancy go to direct heirs, by bloodline, of a trust when an heir dies?

Answered by attorney Neil J. Lehto (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Neil J. Lehto
It may be customary for marital partners to arrange their financial affairs for the care and support of each other upon death. A trust, however, being one of several tools by which to do so, may direct that none of its assets be awarded to a spouse and that, upon her death, all of its assets be divided among his children only with nothing going to her children.

If one heir out of 6 refuses to sign for a house to be sold, is there a way the others can sell it without that signature?

Answered by attorney Norman Harry Green (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger LLP
Yes. If the house is still in probate, the ordinary and usual way to sell is for the personal representative (administrator) to petition the court for approval of the sale. Consent of all 6 not required. If it already is owned of record by 6 owners, they can file a suit for partition, and the court will order sale.

Which home from the will should be sold first?

James Brian Thomas
Answered by attorney James Brian Thomas (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
It's completely up to your aunt at this point. The fact that an asset is identified in her Will today is entirely irrelevant. Your aunt's Will becomes effective when two things happen: (1) she dies, and (2) the document is admitted to probate. Before those two events occur, your aunt can do whatever she chooses to do with either piece of property.
