My sibling and I inherited our parent's estate. One sibling inherited a large tract of land with buildings and another inherited the family home. The land piece is worth more than double the home and is debt free, but the family home has an equity line on it. Who's debt is this? Is it the inheritor of the home responsible or is the estate responsible? The estate has other assets as well. All other assets are jointly owned.
