A girlfriend became executor of a family house that was transferred without going through probate. Speaker A worries whether skipping probate could create legal problems for siblings or leave the property vulnerable to judgments.
My girlfriend was telling me about what she's going through with her house and her family, right? And I'm saying, how can that be? So they all made her, uh, an executor, right? So I'm like, would that have nothing to do with your siblings if the house is in your name? If a judgment shouldn't come up in anybody else's name, right?
Well, I'm curious, did, did she inherit the home? Uh, did it go through like probate, or did someone pass away and this is what's happening?
They just all made her the executor for her to have the house.
Interesting. Yeah, that's— if it was going through probate, which you're saying it's not, then there, there can be some complications there if she inherited it or they, you know, they received it from someone else and there's multiple people involved. But if that's not the case, I'm not sure.
No, it didn't go through probate. They just all signed off on it. I wonder if it should have went through probate.
Well, is that the situation? Did someone pass away and now they're trying to figure out ownership?
