my husbands mother and uncle inherited an estate(new york) from their father a number of years ago. my husband has leased this property for 10 years with the understanding that it would be sold to us eventually. our lease is up, yet we still continue the upkeep and taxes on this property(part of the lease agreement). the problem is this: 1)siblings and cousins now want to split up the farm, 2) mother and uncle are getting sickly. question is, what happens to the farm if either one of the owners die? also, do we have any legal right to prevent this farm from being split up like the other siblings want?
