Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
My brother in law died a few days ago with the home mortgage in his name only. My sister does not want to stay in the house but will be getting a substantial life insurance settlement. If she just moves and mails them the keys can she be held accountable finicially. It's in Georgia if it matters.

A lawyer will need to examine all of the pertinent documents (estate, real estate transaction and life insurance) for your sister in order to provide an answer that she can rely upon.

Since no one here has seen the property deeds, insurance, and other paperwork there is no way to accurately answer you.
