My Mom passed away recently and left her house and land to her 4 sons. The will reads, "share and share alike" (house and 2 acres of land). If I decide to keep my fourth of the property, do I have any advantage of how the division of land would be done? I have been living on the land for the last 22 years in a mobile home that I own. I would be willing to give up my share of my Mom's house just to keep a half acre of the land, as long as the division incorporated the area my home occupies. What are my options?
