Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Maryland

Unless your fiance had executed a Last Will and Testament leaving the property to you, you will probably not be entitled to inherit it. It will go to any children of his own, or if none, to his parents and siblings if any. If there were none of these, other members of his family would be entitled to inherit the property. Unless these folks are willing to give the house to you in light of the circumstances, or at least to sell it to you, you will lose out. I hope he was wise enough to have a Will in place. I strongly suggest you contact an attorney who is familiar with estate law as soon as possible to find out more specifically what you are facing.
