Hi all, what a great website...I may get the answers I need!
My mother died in 1999, and left a house in Turkey. I rightfully inherited the house, except my mother's family took any information, keys, deeds off me and I never saw them again. Nor did I even visit the house, as I didn;t know the address or have any keys....long story!
Now, I have all the details and keys to the house, after a long battle with my family, and want to sell the house as it hasn't been maintained at all by by so-called family in the past 11 years.
As far as I know, the house/deeds are still in my mothers name...what do I need to do in order to change the deeds into my name? Does anyone know about inheritance tax laws? Can anyone help guide me briefly through what I need to do?
Many thanks for your time.
