While close friends or family members may have had the best intentions when they left their house to you, the reality doesn’t always work out favorably for the benefactor. Many who inherit a home have no interest in living on the property. For others, it’s too emotional for them to be in the house, or there may be hidden expenses or problems with the property that make it unaffordable. The benefactor will have pay taxes and carry insurance on a property they don’t want.
