I was told he has to physically live in the property until he passes away, and then the house goes to me (her daughter). Is he allowed to rent the house out to someone else? He originally signed his rights away to her estate but somehow now has the parcel in his name.

Hire a DE attorney to search the title and determine ownership. It sounds like the husband is the surviving tenant by the entirety. If he made some type of disclaimer, then Mother's heirs need to enforce it in Court.

She might want to be sole executor solely for convenience. Or she might want to keep the executor fee all for herself. Or, she might have more even more nefarious reasons. There is no way any attorney answering this question can know.

He was almost $18K in child support arrears and his mom never knew about his annuity, so she never set up probate court. Instead she simply had him cremated. How do I place a lien against his annuity?
