[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry OP back here. We have plenty of lawyers  now and in creating this mess including one parent (set up will and trust), siblings and spouses of siblings. Other real estate was part of will which was either directly addressed in will or has been sold.

The entire estate can't be closed out until agreement is reached on what to do with the home. The sibling residing in the home has rejected all offers to settle including owning the house outright but not getting share of the cash (equity in home is 5x what split cash would be). They are demanding home outright and equal split of cash. This has infuriated some of the siblings so to partition we go.

We actually used to all be very close.

Hot mess. It is a good reminder to all that making one of your kids your executor could be a terrible move. [/quote]

Settle with how ever much the parents gave to that child for the house and then each sibling gets 1/2 that amount from the estate and then everything else is divided.  If they don't agree to that let a judge decide.[/quote]
