Re: property

It may be possible that she still has a legal interest in the property because of the contract payments she made and/or because of her maintenance of the property after the point that her payments stopped. We would need to see the sale contract and would need to gain a better understanding of the chronology (and extent) of the upkeep before commenting further.
