No will. Only grandfathers name and name of ex wife on deed. No other assets. I’ve been here for one year caring for him 24/7 off of a $200 per month allowance from aunt whom at the time had a joint bank account with my grandfather. My question is:
I am POA medically and financially for my grandfather. Since my grandfather had no will, what should my next step be? I live here with my fiancé and our 13 year old son. This is our home. How do we keep it? We have no money and no credit. The home was basically in shambles When we moved in and we’ve done tons of work on it, paid for with our own savings. We don’t know what to do next. The hospice nurse gave him a week today.
Without a will, you will have no legal right to the home when your grandfather passes. If he is competent and wants you to have it after he dies, he can sign a Beneficiary Deed that will leave it to you. Unfortunately, your care for him and improvements to the house will not earn you the right to the house later.
