    What exactly is the residue and remainder?

    The executor, who is also to be the trustee and was the drafter of the will, my mom's lawyer, claims that the will forms the trust before the paying of estate taxes and therefor the properties are bound by that trust and cannot be touched to help pay those taxes.

    What exactly is the residue and remainder?

    You are correct. Since my brother is the youngest of us all, her intention was for the 2 extra properties to help sustain him in the long run, not me and my sister. That of course is if the properties remain. I do not think that my mother expected the taxes to be so high. As well, she was not...

    But is the property being given to my brother considered to be part of that residue? I know that it was my mother's intention for the two extra properties being left to my brother to cover any needs for the other three properties which we each, my brother, my sister and I live in separately. My...

While she was in the hospital, she signed over a check to me to use to run her house, pay her bills and handle any events that came up. We never expected that she would never return home.
