I'm asking this to help my wife's family. This is in Minnesota. Both of my wife's parents are deceased. One of my wife's brothers recently died. He was never married and had no children. As far as we have been able to determine so far, he left no will and no estate administrator. One of his brothers plans to take care of the estate but is unsure where to start. The deceased had a house (plus whatever is in it) that was, from what I understand, not quite paid for in full, plus some money in some CDs and a savings account. He also owned some vehicles. How does my brother-in-law go about becoming the estate administrator? Also, after he does that, what should he do next? He currently has not contacted a lawyer.
