[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the executor and the house is probably about 40 percent of the estate. We haven’t started probate yet as we’ve trying to give sibling time to sort themselves out, grieve, figure out job…

Sibling seems to think parent would have wanted me to leave home available for as long as needed. I’ve been trying to be reasonable and don’t want to have to evict my sibling, but by the same token, having this hanging over me and my family is stressful because anything could go wrong with the home, and we’d have to then deal with it. I’m just ready to be done with this and move on. Is a year too short? [/quote]

Are you the only two siblings? Give the sibling the house plus 10% and you take the rest. Easy peasy.[/quote]

Yep. Tell sibling they have had a year, and now it's time to go to probate. Tell them house + 10% and you're done.

This sibling is going to string you along otherwise, unfortunately. Clearly they want to live in the house forever, and split the remaining 60% of the estate. That isn't acceptable.[/quote]
