My question involves real estate located in the State of: Kentucky
My Grandfather died and willed his interest in 85 acres of property to his children, my Grandmother died with no will. The family included my father and his ten siblings. Two of the siblings lived on the property, unmarried until their death. The property has never been divided among the heirs. When my father died he left his heirship interest, by will, to my mother. The property remained uninhabited and unused for approx. 10 years. I attempted to lease the property, some heirs agreed to lease, others refused. There was never any legally documented or signed lease or other agreement. So I moved to the property, built a house and various outbuildings, repaired other structures on the property(i.e. barn), installed water and sewer, I mow, farm and raise crops, fence and maintain the property, all without any objection or resistance from any heir and have lived here and payed the property taxes for 17 years. In general I have used the property, and it is generally recognized in the community, as mine for 17 years.Various heirship interest have been acquired and consolidated by others in the family until there are now 6 primary interest holders. None of the other heirs live on or use any part of the property. Can I claim this property under Adverse Possession or what are my options or expected compensation in a dispute? Thanks in advance for any help or guidance.
