My Mother had a living trust, but neglected to put her last house on it. My sister and I were joint trusties to the trust and named in the (pour over will) to handle probate. Mom died on Oct.22 2005. My sister died on Jan 31, 2006,prior to probate being finished. Sister died without a will. Sister had husband put on stock accounts and cd account, that were under the living trust. Sister also had a son who has signed away his right of interhertince to his dad. Question is my sister and I had agreed that when probate was finished I would have the option to buy her out of Mom's home and I am living in the home making the mortgage payment. Will the house now have to go through another probate due to my sister's death?
