we live in Pa. and moved into my in-law's home they were building and had left standing half done. we moved in after talking to them and finished the inside. we've been here now 10 yrs. they eventually moved in with us and after a yr or so, my mother in law went into a nursing home. after her death, my father in law(84), having not filled out any paperwork that may have helped with the bill, had an outstanding balance of approx. $40,000.00. he decided to take out a loan to pay off the nursing home, and put our home up as collateral! he holds the deed, but we have been taking care of everything for yrs. there was an understanding that we would inherit the home after their deaths. we knew nothing of this until it was done. he informed me today that he didn't buy any insurance on the loan either. can my husband and i buy insurance for it? or are we going to have to pack up our family and move upon dad's death?there is no way we could afford to buy this home back from the bank, it's worth about 250,000. is there a way out of this mess?
