If you are an executor of an estate/house and you are incurring expenses traveling to it to take care of it, hiring some one to do upkeep and maintenance to keep it in sale worthy condition, you are entitled to be reimbursed for that.
Hi All,
My parents house was willed to myself and my only other sibling after the death of our father earlier this year.
That is not correct....
The only expenses that can be charged against the estate other than funeral expenses and lawful debts of the deceased at time of death are those that are listed in the will. Solicitors always have a clause in there for their costs of administration of the estate. maintaining assets is not covered because if you think about it the estate could be depleted by such activity and leave nothing to the beneficiaries.
I am quoting from the excellent book on this issue isbn 978-0-19-954430-1
I'm of the opinion that he just wants a quick sale so he can pocket a few euro.
I'm not keen on becoming a landlord, have heard too many horror stories to be honest.
You say this as though your brother is doing something wrong in wanting a quick sale. It is you that wants to hold onto the house and you that wants your brother to get settled down with a house, neither of which he wants. 'not at any price' He's entitled to his inheritence and the sooner you sell the better before it leads to a massive family feud.
