Q: What steps do we take in getting my father's & aunt's portion of their inheritance?
My father and his 2 siblings (a sister and a brother) have just obtained a judgement of possession on a property that was their parents. My father's brother lives on the property and feels as though he should be allowed to continue living there and not have to buy out my father nor my aunt. My father and aunt paid for the succession, no contribution from my uncle, and my uncle has no idea that the ownership has moved to the 3 heirs, as of yet. They have tried to discuss this with him, but he shuts the conversation down and has asked them to leave the property. They don't want to kick him off, they just want their thirds, their part of the inheritance.
A: If the co-owners or property cannot get along and/or disagree with the use of the property, then one can go to Court and force a sale of the property ----I would suggest that you contact an attorney in your area to consult as to the process for doing this. Good luck.
