Where do you get your parents will at?

The contents of a Will are your parents' personal and legal business. It is none of a child's business unless the parent shows you the Will, includes you in estate/will planning, or you are named the Executor/Executrix of the Will (this is not a minor child). When the parents die, the Executor/Executrix can contact the parents' Attorney to get a copy of the Will, if it's location is unknown at home.

Can your sister continue to reside in a home that was bought for her by our deceased father if he willed it to her and he was the only mortgage holder?

Provided the estate is solvent, she should be able to obtain the title to the home, subject to the remaining mortgage. She can remain in the home, but will have to satisfy the finance company's lien on the home through a new mortgage or paying it off. There may be additional clauses in the will directing that the mortgage be paid off by the estate. The executor of the estate, or their legal counsel, will be able to answer these questions.

Can you add your name on a home deed to avoid probate?

No. An executor must be appointed by the court. That appointment gives the executor the authority to deal with any real estate owned by the decedent. The executor does not need to "add their name" to any deed. Once appointed, the executor has the authority to handle the real estate according to the provisions in the Will or the probate laws if the authority to sell the real estate wasn't granted in the Will. You should discuss this issue with the attorney who is handling the estate.


What are your rights to a home after a parent dies and still owes a mortgage?

The home belongs to the bank if there is money owed. The person who is to carry out all the wishes (executor) from the parent's will must either use other assets to pay the mortgage off or sell the house and pay the mortgage, keeping any profit. The bank will not clear the debt until it is paid, they will take the house by force if needed.


My mother is deceased I am the executor of her estate there was a mortgage on a mobile home and my name is not on the loan so if the mortgage company forecloses am I liable for the loan amount?

If the mobile home and mortgage are in your mother's name alone then you are not personally responsible for paying the loan. However, your mother's estate is responsible for her debts. If the loan isn't paid the bank will foreclose on the property and is entitled to any other assets if there is a deficiency.
