Aug 22, 2018 17:29:30You should talk to a real estate lawyer to see your options, to see if there's something you can do; if you have any rights on this situation that can prove what's being done to you is out of bad faith.
Good luck!
Do I need to have beneficiary on my house
May 28, 2018 10:22:42Hi, Ester!
May 31, 2018 09:22:17No, you don't need to have. But it will make it easier for everyone when the owner of the house passes away, because the decision of inheritance of the house becomes automatic; it avoids going to the lengthy process of probate.
