Real Estate Contract Dispute

Summary

A non-notarized real estate contract can complicate property claims, especially if the seller passes away. If the property is under probate, its crucial to retrieve any relevant documents, such as the original contract, to support your claim. Consulting a lawyer is advisable to navigate the probate process and assert your rights. Filing a motion to redeem without legal assistance can be challenging, as it requires proving your right to the property. Consider seeking legal advice to ensure proper steps are taken.

Hey Cray! Thanks for sharing your situation. Here's what I understand:
- You paid $* for a house in * with a contract but it wasn't notarized.
- The seller passed away, and his brother inherited and later sold the house.
- The current owner, aware of your deal, inherited it from the brother.
- The house is now under probate.

Is there anything else I can help you with?
The reason why I always didn't go to fight this in court is because I had a fallen out with my ex at the time so the man dies I have a phone out with my ex and we have a storage unit that she doesn't let me get into to get on my paper board and tells me that it was lost so I've gone all this time thinking that the contract was just gone I thought that's a brother got into the house and found like II bought from the contract because we both had a copy but now I just become aware of that storage not being gone and all my paperwork still being in there
Case Rating: *
