| | | 2 Land Questions Well here we go the best i can do here The first is my dad and his two sons me being one are on the house deed or title or both ? My dad and other brother no longer get along and he will not take his name off the house tryed buying him out but as you would know it did not appraise high enough for him my dad has thought of taking it to Probate court or what ever court it has to be taken to ? If so what are the chances ? or does he have other options he could try ?
The secound question is that i have is there are four of us that went in on some land which is now paid for and it is not devided and one of the four is my brother and his wife and the other being my mother and of course all of our names are on it, as it was a land contract deal and I dont see eye to eye with my brother or sister inlaw how do i go about getting 1/4 of mine in my name so if somthing happens to me my wife and kids get the right to this piece of land ? thanks for any advice in advance and we are in the state of Michigan. |

OR, let the situation lay. Quote: |

See above. | You can get a partition suit for $20K and three years if it's cheap and fast.
