Question posted in the Property Law category relating to Gauteng
I have an uncle who's claiming my late grandmother's home. She had 2 kids, my mom and her brother. My mom passed away in the year 2001 and my grandmother passed in 2019. Please advise if said uncle is the sole owner of the house or if we also have a claim because now he doesn't want anyone there

Hi there,
I see that you haven't made a payment for the question, but I'm going to assist you a little. If you want to ask a follow-up question, please make the required payment.
Did your late grandmother leave a Will, or was there no Will?
Who is the executor of her estate? Has somebody been appointed?
Att. Patrick
Please remember this is a dialog if you have follow-up questions please make the required payment, then use the REPLY button and ask your further question. I would like to continue assisting you, but I need to concentrate on people who make payments for their questions.
