Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
Irresponsible Family
When my Grandmother died she had no will. All her belongings and her house was taken over by two of her six children. These two uncles along with their pets are currently destroying her house and they can't even afford to pay the property taxes. On two separate occasions the government was going to take the house from them for not paying the property taxes. On two separate occasions I've had to step in at the last minute to pay the back taxes because I'm the only one in the whole family who can afford to. I refuse to let the government take my Grandmas house but I also refuse to keep paying for other peoples taxes. I've tried to get them to all agree to sign the house over to me and let me worry about the taxes and cost of repairs while making the house inhabitable once again. But they all can't seem to agree. What can I do from a legal stand point if anything?
