His sister has taken over the house and everything. The car was to go to me and my name is on title. There is no will. It is like I don't or never existed. They have been using his money.
Without seeing the car title and bank information, I cannot answer your question fully. However, the likely answer is that no, you will not inherit anything.

He threatened to kick me out cuz I keep asking him to take care of it.
In NC you can talk to the local housing authority, and as long as you have properly notified your landlord of the issues they can step in. And your landlord is walking a fine line if they try and evict you after you reported issues to them.

Upon my death, is it likely that there will be financial, e.g. tax, implications if no beneficiary designation... Read more »
It will save your heirs some money if you do so. If there is no beneficiary, all of the assets in the IRA will be subject to the audit fees from the Clerk's Office.
What would the consequences be for lying about their income to qualify for a place to live, as long as they didn't miss any rent payments going forward. In this situation they don't have any beneficiary that could co-sign the lease.
