similar situation with my dad, (hes not dead) he has a partner been living with him a few years now, she owns her own house elsewhere which is rented out, he has recently remade his will to say that me an one of my brothers get everything in equal shares but we have to allow his partner to continue living in his house and we have to maintain it and cant charge rent for as long as she and her son wants to live there, only saving grace is we can do what we want with the land, otherwise it would be a liability, if he hadnt done the will we could push her out and do what we please with the place.
