My fater had a life lease on his mothers home, the home is to be sold now that he has passed, it is to be divided 50% to her ex daughter in law and 50% to great grandchildren. The property taxes were sent to her and she sent them to my father, he paid the full amount every year, who is legally resposible for these. Nothing in her will metioned taxes or insurance on the home. Does she owe 20 years of 50% of the taxes?
Generally, the tenant on life lease continues to maintain the property, including payment of taxes. Please contact me if you would like to discuss this in more detail, 586-868-5100. John R. Tatone
