One of our "assets" is my hubby's mother's home. In Louisiana, half of the father's estate must be left to the surviving children.
It's not worth very much (in disrepair from 2 hurricanes), and we would own only 1/8 if it was ever sold, which wouldn't be for years. Our lawyer said that the asset is not worth very much because of "usufruct", that is, hubby's mother is living in the house, and will be for years to come.
Any one familiar with this? What do you think the trustee would do about it?
Our lawyer listed the asset as $1500.00.
