Re: property rights

Probably not. You need to bring a probate. Depending on how the property was titled, and how long parents have been dead, a probate could be fairly cheap, simple, and quick; but so long as no probate is opened, you are going to have a problem trying to get someone out.

Call me or another probate attorney.
