Re: House Sale Question

Under PR Law he has legal right to participate in all the estate processes and to receive all the information relatied to it. If they ignore him he can sue them to make the process clear.

Bajo la ley de Puerto Rico eel tiene derecho a tener conocimiento de todo lo que pasa y puede demandar para ello y así evitar que le tomen ventaja en el proceso.

Re: House Sale Question

Your husband is entitled to his mother's portion. Being a heir; he should first make sure that he is provided all of the information relevant to determining whether the actual appraisal and the proposed price of the house match. In order to liquidate the estate your husband's participation is essential. However, in order to be sure, he should periodically check the register of power of attorneys to make sure that none is forged. He should also request a title search on the property, and order an independent appraisal of the house. Finally, he is entitled to proceeds from the lease of the house, if any. This is so, even if one of the heirs currently occupies the house.
