Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Missouri
My mother passed away leaving a house that was only in her name. my sister and I are her only heirs. my sister has stated in person that she "doesn't want anything to do with the house" and in text messages she stated for me to " get professionals to contact her to sign off on the property" and that "me and my aunt can have it all". If I wanted to go ahead and work at getting possession of the home, without my sister, would the texts and affidavits from family that heard her say she doesn't want anything to do with house, be allowed in court and help. I paid taxes on the house once since mom has passed but I refused to pay anymore because she possibly responsible also for taxes, but has not helped me pay for upkeep or taxes.

Your sister was right. Have an attorney draft a disclaimer or quick claim deed for you. The private Court will force you to spend more money trying to use the evidence you have now.
Good luck
