Life Estate Home Equity Refinance Question

my parents deeded me 20 arces & house in Indiana. My mother has since passed but my dad has a life estate. My 93 yr old father is still lucid. However, the house is rundown & need of repairs. Even though the deed is in my name. the bank will not give a equity loan without Dads signature. He will not agree. I am also concerned if he has to go into a nursing home for years, the house will continue to fall apart. Is there anything i do to get needed monies now ? by brianna88745 from Lauderdale By The Sea, Florida. Mar 9th 2011 Reply

Unfortunatly you would need to remove the life estate or get your father to sign off.

It appears that accessing funds from the property will not be available to you without your fathers co-operation...I would consult an attorney and see what options you have...regarding the estate and care of your father as he ages...look into a power of attorney...
