    My mom inherited a property from my grandmother when she passed. The tenants decided they weren't going to pay rent or utilities. My mom had to get a lawyer and the lawyer informed her that she had to keep the lights and water on for the tenants and that it could take up to a year to evict them. After spending TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars over the course of a year, with endless headache, my mom was finally able to sell the property for $10,000 more than what was owed on it. So to everyone saying "I wish someone would gift me a property" or "just sell it after they pass", you have no earthly idea what the details are on these rentals. They could very well be a curse not a blessing.

      Also, in most cases, lease agreements do not terminate upon death of the landlord or upon sale of the premesis. So, if you buy or inherit rental property that has a tenant, you may have to "buy the lease out" or wait months until the lease expires. This often makes rental properties a tough sell.

    Don't ever tell the parents what you might plan to do, unless you are all in accord and the communication is healthy on all sides.

    The mobile home park’s attorneys tried to sue my Ex and I for the cost of removing his mother’s trailer when she passed. They only knew we existed because one year for Christmas we paid her lot rent. She had been a life long hoarder and it was better than gifting her stuff. We lived over 1000 miles away and there was no way I was going down that rabbit hole when everyone else just looked away. I wrote a letter to the Judge letting him know we would not be attending the hearing and that we were not making a claim for assets (there was nothing) nor were we responsible for her liabilities. I think the park just wanted to cover themselves.

    The rentals could be dealt with. If they're worth $1M, tell the in laws that if you inherit them, you'll sell them for $100k. And yes, ask the in laws to try to sell the time share for $1 and then be surprised that nobody will buy it for $1.

    They could accept the rental houses as inheritance and then sell them soon as they clear probate court. I would be up front with my intention to do so if they view it as a legacy thing they would know that it would end only months after their passing. This may be more palatable then outright refusing everything which they make take offense to. If there is debt on the rentals it would be a no go, not worth assuming the loan.

    Depends where and what the rentals are. They house peop,e who are up to date on rent, then give them lots of notice the property is being sold. Again sometimes rentals sell with the good tenants in them. But bad tenants behindvin rent, or on section 8 you are into evictions, and squatters a d alk that to clear themmout before you can sell. So its not do easy peasy to say " just sell". Tenants in many states have lots of appeals and protections.
