Basically, aunt died, no kids, two houses. One nephew was told for over 20 years he'd get one house in return for managing it- its rental, painting, new windows, re-furb,-etc etc while aunt was abroad.
She paid expenses on jobs- eg paint, windows, but he got nothing for his time, trouble, responsibility, skill in choosing tenants, etc etc..did all in hopes of one day the house would be his, as understood from aunt.
Then she changed her will last year, (fully compos mentis, judged by Dr.) Told only the executor, never told her nephew.
Now executor rings him, orders house to be sold, and nephew is to get a small figure that no way covers his 20 years of managing....Sadly executor is relative (uncle in law)--and executor's own daughter gets the other house, and he (executor) and his wife get bulk of money from sale of this house, which was managed by nephew.
What, if any, recourse has he???????
