Georgia real estate law question?
Our family owns 2 parcels of real estate with another family member that lives out of state. Our family has always paid the property taxes with no help from the out of state relative. However, the relative has always received any monies made from timber sales. The have reaped the benefits but paid nothing as far as the upkeep on the property. Now this relative wants to cash in their 1/3 of the property. We can't afford to buy them out. Do we have any standing in court because we own 2/3 and have always paid the taxes? We want to be fair, but our family has always lived on this property and the relative's family has never and it means nothing to them. They just want their money. HELP! Advice anyone?
