Much more information is needed. Please re-post with the following facts:

1. How was the house owned - as tenants in common or joint tenants with rights of survivorship? I assume the house is still owned by husband and mother.

2. Who died first, husband or mother?

3. Who had a will, husband, mother or both? What did the will say?
