I agree. The caretaker should get the house.
The 4 of us split everything except the house.
My sister got it cus she took care of my parents.
After daddy died she moved in with our mom.
Forever grateful for my sister.
Daddy was not always easy to deal with.
It does sound complicated and
outside advise may open new possibilities.
Sigh. It is such a difficult time. Try to keep your family together, madison10.
We were lucky, in that my wife and I did not feel that we wanted a claim to anything in my mother and father’s estate, so it was easier for us to navigate...we only really had to deal with the emotion of loss until things came to a head and we were drawn into it...regrettably.
I have been complimented over the years for my tact, but when I am emotional, I can become quite blunt, and that bluntness only widened the developing chasm in our family.
Try and avoid that if you can.
