He has a right to ask for his inheritance. What if the mother remarries? She takes the money to another man, and the sister too. It's just not right. It's possible the OP is still quite young. Many of you keep saying, go and hustle, go and hustle. How many plots of land have you bought since you've been hustling?

Even Dangote started business with family money.

the scripture you fokn quoted did not say you should start running up and down on nairaland because of what your father left for you. You go just die for nothing over family's property. Go and hustle and build a better house for yourself. Lazy man waiting to collect house rent.
Mtcheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew

Leemzyy We are not talking of me or you, Proverbs 13:22 KJV, of babangbali’s scripture says a good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, you & them have no excuse for popsy.

A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children, and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

I want to assume you are not from these continent, however if you must know in africa esp.. Nigeria inheritance are for children
The wife/mother is duely compensated but naa the children get the property and will manage the property
In the event of no will, the 1st child is entitled to largest share, even the law recognises the 1st born

Compensated how? The house always belongs to the mother. She will live there till the day she dies. Other properties can be shared. Lastly the court will rule in her favour if there is no will.

Don't mind that goofy guy! Properties of fathers belongs to the children not wives

properties belong to the children, you are correct. The house the man lived in belongs to the wife. In this case it's the woman's property. Kiss the truth.

My mother and elder sister sold our late father's house secretly without our consent around february this year but we just found out only recently.It's a 4 bedroom bungalow.The buyer has completed renovation.Have we lost out? They didn't share the money they are holding on to it.Is there anything that can be done at this point in time?

Quick one! Did your dad die intestate? If no, did your family get Letters of Administration from the court?
In the order of succession where there is no will, your mother comes first before you and your siblings. So as family head, she has the right to sell the property. She however owes a duty to carry you along in both the sale and the proceeds of sale.

People still fight over their father's properties. I never made that mistake from early in life, I told myself that I was going to build wealth and amass my properties myself.

My motto is " Whatever I do not acquire myself , does not belong to me"

Well the house devolves first to her (your mom because she’s a spouse of the deceased and has more rights) I don’t suppose if they got a letter of administration before the said sale, still your name might not be there seeing that you have other siblings.

There’s nothing you can do really, as she has a legal right to the property.

I know people are talking trash but truth is that as a child of your father, you are entitled to share in the family wealth. Your mother cannot include your sibling & leave you out. Best thing is to get a property lawyer & file a claim. The court would likely mandate that they give you a share of the proceeds from the sale of the house, only if they don’t bribe the system now that they have money.

You better focus on building your own house. My Dad once told me that we should do joint investment...nope. The family wont realize it is joint once he is gone. Focus on your own life...You can do better than your father. I always told mine that. He is proud I have exceeded him.

Sorry for the embarrassment but from the look of things, you, your mum and your siblings are not in a good relationship

Is either you are not organize or you are a future problem child

I think you have to make peace with your family, starting with your mum before she can integrate you back into the family

With what is going on, there is no synergy between you and your family

Very soon, they will sell you without receipt

Go and make peace with your family and stop all these drama

If a woman or women gang up against you, your own done finish be that

It's your mother and father's home. After his death it's your mother's unless it was specifically trusted to you and you can prove it. You can not prove it that's why you are asking here. You didn't put the money up for that home nor did you maintain it. Only thing you did there was piss the beds. Get your money up and but your own property!

Stop insinuating that the OP is a prodigal son. Women are always scheming and very manipulative.
Something similar happened to me as the only son to my late father. My father died intestate so after his death I made a move to retrieve the credentials to his assets but unfortunately for me my mother (now late) conspired with my sisters to get hold of the credentials and keep it in their possession even before I thought about getting hold of the credentials. They were that wickedly sharp.

My sisters fueling the crisis tarnished my image to anyone who cared to listen but as God may have it as a perfect planner and grand schemer he made my late mum hand over all the credentials to my late father's property to me before she died. My sisters are still mad at me till date for having those credentials in my possession.

Life is a battlefield. Not even your own blood can be trusted to always have your back. My advice to the OP is to thread with wisdom from God. If it is the will of God for him, he will recover all what he lost as his inheritance from his scheming mother and sister.

So they made the move faster than you, correct? Then you coerced the mom to hand over to you. Did you split that with your sisters. If not maybe they were trying to avoid this exact scenario.

Angelfrost:

Maybe you are missing my main point...!

It's a father's responsibility to raise his kids well, and if possible, leave a strong legacy for them.

However, the legacy or inheritance part is not carved in stone!

Let me be a bit clearer...!

No father owes his kids a damn inheritance!!! Yes, you read that right!

What a father owes his kids is a proper and right upbringing.

Inheritance is more or less a bonus!

A serious child cannot and shouldn't focus and keep waiting for his or her share of the father's estate.

That's why no law is broken if the father wills everything to anyone he likes prior to his demise.

In my opinion I approve this statement. As a man you owe your children good upbringing and good education. Anything else you give your children na jara.

Please be more specific, which country or culture is 1st born more entitled than other kids and on what basis, definitely not Yoruba maybe Igbo

Unless the first born contributed more in building the house than other kids

I don't know where OP is from, but I know that in Benin culture when the father passes on, the first son inherits the properties in the absence of a will.

I have one question before giving you any legal advice. Did your father die testate or intestate?
