Question

My mother died last week and I have been living with her and have no other place to go. She is the owner of this home and I have no ties to it whatsoever. Will I be evicted?



Answer

It depends. If there is a mortgage on the home, and you continue to pay it, you will not be evicted. If you don't pay it, the property will be foreclosed and you will have to move out. If there is no mortgage, it depends upon her will and the other heirs. If you are the only heir, you will inherit the house. If there are other heirs, they will have a say in the matter as they will probably all own it and want to sell it. Again, these are assumptions, if she has a will that will control. If she does not, and if you have other siblings and she has no spouse, you will all inherit the house.
