In the past I recall seeing public notification ads in the newspaper announcing someone had died and if you had a claim to the estate you should step up. That approach seemed geographically limited, and these days newspapers aren't very popular.
If someone dies intestate are public...
Thanks for the reply. The brothers are both in their sixties at this point, I don't think either one is going to make an attempt to secure title. I guess it's going to be something for a future generation to hash out.
This isn't a scenario I'm involved in but I'm curious of how this needs to be handled.
State of Oklahoma.
My friend was sole beneficiary of his parents estate after his mother died in 2018, father had died years before. Part of the estate was a house previously owned by an aunt and uncle...
I'm in Ohio
Both my kids were married in 2023 and I would like to purchase each of them property to build homes on. Ohio doesn't have a gift tax but I know there's a federal gift tax for over $17k so that's what my questions are about. This would be cash purchase from me to the seller or a...
I have mine filed with the county clerks office, it's safe and I hope makes it dispute proof. Both my kids have a copy and my attorney, also I have a copy in a fire proof safe here at home.

not sure what you contemplate him filing (or where), but the answer is no. If I understand you correctly, he lives in a camper that he doesn't own, in a barn on property he doesn't own. Access to his property will be completely at the whim of your sister and brother-in-law...
I understand at this time there is no executor, he simply asked me if I would be willing. Today I dropped off paperwork for assigning the executor, living will, durable power of attorney, and some blank generic wills. Also the name and number of who I had prepare my estate and a strong...
I am helping him get a legal will prepared now, including a living will and a durable power of attorney for health care. He wants me to handle the estate, that is what prompted my questions, but I am not a beneficiary.
In Ohio. Couldn't figure out a better thread title, sorry.
My elder brother has lived in a camper tucked into a barn for over 25 years, not in any way a legal residence, also he has lived there rent free. The barn and property are owned by my sister and her husband who hate my brother as much...
When this happened years ago with my grandmother's home I was able to buy the home and make monthly payments directly to the nursing home she was at. Medicaid had a formula for the purchase price, like 10% under appraised value and an interest rate at 2% under current rates (those numbers may...
Maybe "zoning issues" wasn't the correct term, nuisance issue probably fits better.
The land is in the country so no city ordinences, but not so remote that neighbors can't see what's going on and my sister is fearing someone complaining, my brother refusing to comply and then fines being...
In Ohio.
Family drama. My sister owns property she lets my brother live in, all he pays are utilities and property taxes. My brother has accumulated lots of junk outside, couple of cars and trucks plus lots of misc. stuff. Big fight just happened because she wants all the junk gone but he...
There's also the issue of strangers coming onto my property, I'm really not that friendly Then there's also the inevidable 6:00AM phone call from the trainer...oh hey, sorry to wake you, I'm not feeling well, could you go out and feed and water the horses for me? Then turn them out and clean...
Thanks for the replys. Tax issues aside the more I have thought about this the potential for injury and my liability as the property owner is just to great, I don't need the headache. Thanks again.
