Question by Geronimo5: Looking for opinions on a situation concerning joint ownership of a family home.?
Our parents owned a small three bedroom home in Connecticut.
My Mom died twelve years ago, and ownership went to my father.
He is currently living in a foreign country, in a nursing home, and a lawyer from that country has power of attorney for him, granted by myself and my brother and sister. We are all around fifty years old. I am married, and own a house with my husband and seven year old daughter. My brother is married (no kids), and rents a townhouse.
My sister, however, still lives in the family house where I also lived until I got married eight years ago. My sister maintains and has upgraded the house over the years. Landscaping, vinyl siding etc. She is not married.
We are sending papers for the lawyer to sign over this house to us three adult children. My father has always agreed to this.
Do you think it is right for my brother and I to ask our sister to buy out our 2/3 of the house, considering she will be living in it probably forever? She makes good money.
Of course we will compensate her for the improvements she paid for. We are not trying to be greedy. She has been living there mortgage free for more than ten years.
