My elder brother and I are executors for our mother’s will. She died in August 2020. Our father died back in 1993.</p><p>Our mother’s will directs her estate, including the family house (total value £350,000), to be divided equally among the four siblings. <a class="ck-custom-link" href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/probate/what-probate-search-registry-execute-will/">We got the grant of probate</a> within a few months of her death. </p><p>My younger brother had lived with our mother since he finished university in 2000. After her death, we allowed him to continue living in the house, and then after probate we began to empty the contents.</p><p>My sister and I noticed that some furniture had disappeared, and our younger brother said he had placed it in storage, and it was costing him money to store it. However, he did this without our knowledge, <a class="ck-custom-link" href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/ask-a-money-expert/inheritance-will-executor-beneficiary-father-partner/">and we thought he had sold it.</a></p><p>Not long after that, when my sister and I visited our younger brother again, he got very angry and said he believed he should have the house himself, as we had all worked all our lives, and lived in our own houses. He said our mother had said this to him.</p><p>While he lived with our mother, he never gave her any financial support and, if anything, her widow’s pension and disability benefit actually supported him – he never held down a job successfully.</p><p>The current situation is that he has blocked us from his mobile phone and will not allow us to enter the house. We have advised him that we all want to sell the property. My elder brother, who is the other executor, says our younger brother is “fragile” due to his anxiety and so does not want to push it.</p><p>How can we get our younger brother to meet with us and to sell the property he is occupying?</p><p><em>– Jake, by email</em></p> </div> </div> <div class="html-embed section" data-test="html-embed"> <span></span> <div id='wrp-6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd' class='wrp-6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd ' style=''><iframe id='6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd' src='https://cf-particle-html.eip.telegraph.co.uk/6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd.html?direct=true&id=6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd' class='tmg-particle breakout-box wrp-6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd ' title='Ask a Lawyer' data-business-type='editorial' loading='eager' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' allow='web-share' style='width: 100%; min-width: 100%; border: none; position: relative; display: block; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;'></iframe><div style='display: none;' class='particle-newsletter-overlay'></div></div><link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='https://cf-particle-html.eip.telegraph.co.uk/6486bf40-8b3b-413f-b689-96f8c71bdbfd/css/articleRendererHTML.css'><script src='https://cf.eip.telegraph.co.uk/particle-embed/js/particle.js' async></script> </div> <div class="articleBodyText section"> <div class="component article-body-text " data-test="article-body-text"> <p>Dear Jake,</p><p>With family disputes of this nature, I often think how sad the person who made the will concerned (your mother) would be if they could see what has happened since the will came into force. </p><p>The fact of magnetic importance here is that your mother decided on the split of the estate and it was her wish for her four children to receive equal shares.</p><p>You do not say if the will was made after 2000 (when your younger brother moved home permanently), but whether it was or not, she had the opportunity in the 20 years she and your younger brother were living together to make special provision for him if she wished to.</p><p>Her omission in that regard is telling, and we can assert she wanted a four-way split.</p><p>The facts you give about your younger brother being financially supported by your mother are of note in that they could have helped him construct an argument to have greater provision made for him and even stay in the house. This would be covered under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 (the “1975 Act”). </p><p>The 1975 Act is there to protect persons who had a financial dependency on a deceased person and therefore a claim for greater provision from the estate than that made.</p><p>However, such claims must be brought (issued at Court) within six months of the relevant grant of probate being extracted. And to your relief, that deadline has long gone. Which means your younger brother is left with being entitled to just one quarter of the estate, with no clear legal route to increase that share. </p><p>Except what he is doing is sitting tight. And, it seems, claiming mental fragility. Clearly you do need to tread carefully with his mental state. It would be devastating for all if he was triggered into doing something drastic. </p><p>You cannot force contact with your younger brother, and I would urge any communication you send him to be kind and emphasise you want to find a solution that meets his needs. But keep it vague and do not promise him he can stay in the house.</p><p>The power to resolve this matter <a class="ck-custom-link" href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/tax/inheritance/dont-underestimate-risks-being-will-executor-changes-labour/">is held by the executors of your mother’s will,</a> namely you and your elder brother. And the block is your elder brother.</p><p>You do need to be assertive with your elder brother and tell him he has a duty to all the beneficiaries of the will, and not just one. And further by allowing just one to have his own way, he is prejudicing the position of the others.</p><p>The family home is currently held in your mother’s estate and so held by you and your elder brother as executors. I would give your elder brother two options. </p><p>First, you could transfer the house to the four beneficiaries. Once that has occurred any one of the four could <a class="ck-custom-link" href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/consumer-affairs/war-siblings-can-force-sale-mums-house/">seek an order for sale</a> from the court under the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 (TOLATA).</p><p>It is an important legal point that executors cannot be forced to sell under TOLATA. But legal owners and trustees of the land can be. Hence the need to first transfer ownership from the executors to beneficiaries.</p><p>Alternatively, if your elder brother does not agree to transfer the house to beneficiaries, you can explain reluctantly to him that in the face of him not fulfilling his duty as executor, you will seek to have him removed from that role. </p><p>The court is always reluctant to remove an executor because the wish of the deceased as to who they wanted to administer their estate is usually to be respected. But in this case, you could argue your elder brother is failing in his duty and causing loss to the estate by allowing the house to deteriorate, items to go missing and blocking the main estate asset being realised.</p><p>I hope your elder brother sees sense because these disputes can be ghastly – and the only winners are the lawyers.</p> </div> </div> <div class="html-embed section" data-test="html-embed"> <span></span> <div id='wrp-a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af' class='wrp-a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af ' style=''><iframe id='a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af' src='https://cf-particle-html.eip.telegraph.co.uk/a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af.html?direct=true&id=a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af' class='tmg-particle onward-journey wrp-a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af ' title='Ask A Lawyer Onward Journey May' data-business-type='editorial' loading='eager' scrolling='no' frameborder='0' allow='web-share' style='width: 100%; min-width: 100%; border: none; position: relative; display: block; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;'></iframe><div style='display: none;' class='particle-newsletter-overlay'></div></div><link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='https://cf-particle-html.eip.telegraph.co.uk/a5775136-0195-468e-99ae-e15bf7dc14af/css/articleRendererHTML.css'><script src='https://cf.eip.telegraph.co.uk/particle-embed/js/particle.js' async></script> </div> <div class="articleBodyText section"> <div class="component article-body-text " data-test="article-body-text"> <p><em>Ask a Lawyer should not be taken as formal legal advice, but rather as a starting point for readers to undertake their own further research.</em></p> </div> </div> <div id="recipe-enabled" data-recipe-enabled="true"></div> </div> <div class="u-separator-top--loose u-separator--branded">  <aside id="comment" class="comment" data-comment-config="{"authorMode":false,"articleCommentingConfig":true,"convConfig":{"articleId":"A2nPx9kWFb19","viafouraEnvironmentId":"00000000-0000-4000-8000-010fdf3f0a45"}}" data-js="comment" aria-label="Commenting" data-test="join-conversation-section"> <div class="comment__header-container" data-js="comment-header-container" data-test="comment-header-container"> <h2 class="comment__header">Join the conversation</h2>  <div class="comments__social">  <button class="comments__button comment__show-button e-button e-button--large e-button--centered-text" data-js="comment-load" data-label-loading="Loading..." data-test="comment-load" data-event="showComments"> <div class="comment__show-text">Show <span class="e-comment-count__number" data-js="comment-count"> </span> comments <svg class="e-button__icon comment__toggle-icon e-button__icon--right e-button__icon--large" viewBox="0 0 13 7" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <path id="Vector 356" d="M1 0.749911L6.49999 6.25L12 0.749912" stroke="white" stroke-width="1.17857" stroke-linejoin="bevel"/> </svg> </div> </button> <div class="comment__policy-container comment__policy-mobile"> <div class="comment__policy" data-test="comment-policy"> The Telegraph values your comments but kindly requests all posts are on topic, constructive and respectful.
