Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to read my question.
We (husband and I) built a house on my husband's family property, over 20 years ago (with their permission). We have lived here full time, raised our children here. I work within the local community. My husband and adult son (who still lives with us) are both disabled pensioners.
During this time we have cared for my husband's parents who also live on the property in another house, we have also cared for the property and maintained both houses and associated, farm buildings, fences, etc. The property is approximately 47acres.
My husband's parents are now in care, one in a nursing home, one living with their daughter (husband's sister). We are being forced to sell the property by nursing home and husbands sister (she is power of attorney for them).
What are our rights under property law, if any? Over stopping the sale of the property, is there any options for us to take ownership?
Thank you
