This is my quandry.

Could you come up with the $$$ to buy out your part for your house? I would see where I could make a offer to do that and do it if it is allowed...

[Bonny]

We applied for a federal ID number besides & like Caseysmom said I had to account for every penny with a special estate checking account that was set up at a local bank.

I just corrected my post I said I was the executioner..lol I meant executor...

[caseysmom]

I went through the same thing when my mom died Richard I wanted to keep the house and everybody else wanted the money.

Sorry to hear about the trouble you are having mate.
Hang in there, and keep a paper trail. Keep all emails and write down dates etc etc....it's good ammo in court.
Wishing you the best of luck with this one, hope it comes out your way.

You better wish me luck.

Australia is in the summer season in December and I know you probably have a garage I can live in.

I saw that and kinda glossed over it.

Actually?

I was keeping it in mind.

I know it´s not the same.. but a lil story..

my grandparents (mother side) also left no will... there are 5 siblings... 4 live in the same state.. one lives in another one.. 3 3 brothers 2 sis..

anyway.. my mom, her sis and one brother were taking care of the house n stuff.. paying any electric, water that was still being charged.. cleaning up a bit because they intended to rent it out..

we (hubs and I even were one of the probables).. anyhow... the other 2 brothers only wanted the cash.. the one from out of state dropped by.. and said the house was his as his father had told him...

my mom backed out.. if they wanted to fight about it.. fine.. sell it.. fine.. whatever...

thing is the house was "supposed" to be remodeled to rent out as offices.. well.. until now the house is rotting.. people have broken in.. and LIVED there for a while until kicked out by police.. needless to say.. no one got nothing out of it.. I mean thankfully noone needed the cash that much.. but in the end they lost it all... if they now want anything.. I think a demolition is in need..

I´m sorry this is happening to you... really am..

The night my mom died my sister got in her purse and threw out her lipstick I was devastated...she said well she isn't going to use it anymore. I still think my sister is a cold biatch.

The night my mom died my sister got in her purse and threw out her lipstick I was devastated...she said well she isn't going to use it anymore. I still think my sister is a cold biatch.

I still have a bottle of shampoo that my mom had while she was in the Extended Care Hospital.
IT's got her name on it and I refuse to toss it out.

--------

I have a sister that is an LVN.

Let me preface this by saying that I probably could not have changed my mom's dressings, but I did change them for my dad before he lost his toes to diabetes, So I do understand her not wanting to deal with my mom's condition-it's very painful to see someone you love suffer.


While my dad was dying and ma came home to pass? She never once came to see them or to say goodbye.

I resent the EFF out that.

To this day she will swear that my mother told her never to show up at the house again.

I know that is the biggest lie on the planet.

------------

Here is one last tidbit in this story.

My mom didn't want to be cremated, she wanted to be buried next to dad.

My sis' boss gave my sister a check to cover the expenses for the funeral.

My brother went into a tizzy and went off on my sister-he took care of all the 'arrangements' - to the point where I could not attend the funeral becasue i was involved in a work dispute/grievance that I could not miss out on.

I asked him to resched the arrangements and he said, "no".

The last time I went to see her plot, she still has no placard on the grave.

I went to see about paying for one and could not because his name is on the
papers when she was buried.

I let it go until now and that will be one of my complaints in addition to the money he took....That was the least she deserved and almost two years later, she has no placard on the grave marker.

whew......

[CatsMeow]

Oh Richard! My thoughts and prayers fall onto you.

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Aw, Richard lots and lots of prayers are on the way from me. This makes me sort of glad my stepmom took everything dad had before he died.

[RICHARD]

We have decided to sell the house.

The financial turnover was just too great for us to bear.

IT would not have been fair to me or my sibs to make an offer, had we had the familial numbers-we were looking at a three to three tie with the sibs- or had my brother and sister been more patient with what happened we would have been in better shape...

My proposal was to sell the rental, pay mom's bills split a little money and put the house in everyone's name. Had that happened anyone could have borrowed against their piece of the house if they needed cash.

With a signed note of course.

But, my sister and brother had to start freaking out after my mom died. I had not even the time to get my head out of my rear when they began to whine about MONEY AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH MOM'S BILLS.

I didn't even have a minute to mourn when the poop started.

-------------------------------

All in all? I was never tight with a few members of my family and I know that if they had put all THEIR pettiness aside we would have been a strong group of people that could have taken on the world.


I don't mourn that-I feel badly at how my sibs looked in the face of adversity.

If I was stuck in a foxhole with the other three?

I'd stab myself in the cochlea with my bayonet.

---------

Ugh, I am getting an upset stomach and kinda sad....the open house is in 6 hours....

[Killearn Kitties]

Very very best of luck with everything, Richard.
There just isn't anything I can say that will help make it better.
