Re: repossessed probate property
If I were you,jusst leave it alone. Once a car is repossesed, it is sold at auction and then your mother would be responsible if the vehicle is sold at a loss. If you wanted to redeem the vehicle you would have to bring the loan current and that may be too expensive.
