Inheritance issues can get messy quickly. After Daphne\u2019s dad passed and left her the house, she asked her stepmother to either pay rent or move out. When her stepmother refused, she evicted her. But what seemed simple took a surprising turn when an unexpected twist came to light, leaving Daphne confused and looking for advice.This is Daphne\u2019s letter:Dad died and left me his small house.

What should I do?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
