Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Connecticut
My siblings and I were left my mother's home in her will. I was given 50% of the home while my other 2 siblings were given 25% each. The will stipulates that I will occupy the home and it WILL NOT BE SOLD unless all 3 of us agree on a price. I have agreed to pay the taxes on the home so that they don't have to. Can they legally force me out to sell the house?

If you are paying the taxes and insurance, it would be almost impossible to get a court to order a sale. Tougher questions about the upkeep and repairs, though.
