Their are many ways, but they must be done immediately. A contract is one, a promissory note, another.

Your grandmother has to decide that she wants to make provisions in her estate or by deeding her property to your mother. If grandmother does not want to, then it might not happen. Certainly, unless the will states otherwise, the house will be divided among all kids equally. Your mother needs to talk to grandmom and discuss the cold facts of life. Grandmom will then have to decide.
