Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
One of the siblings want to get paid out can he do this and where will we get the money, also one of the siblings wants to put his name on the deed can we all put our name on the deed.
If no Will you need to go to Probate and become the Administrator. You will do what an Executor will do but the State will determine who inherits. All debts will need to be paid from the estate. If no one can buy the house outright, then you will need to sell it. A sale can be forced. All liens on the house will be paid at the time of the sale. Proceeds will be split between you and siblings.
I would get a lawyer in your situation. The Lawyer can become the Administrator and close on the house. If there is a Will, that has to be Probated. If no Will, you still have to Probate her estate.
Your question makes it quite clear that you have no idea about the legalities of what has happened and what needs to happen. You and your siblings need a lawyer to deal with this, sooner rather than later if there is disagreement (eg sibling wanting an immediate payout). It’s not a DIY job.
You haven’t said if there is a will, and if so who is the executor. If there is no will, intestacy definitely needs a lawyer to deal with 6 siblings who disagree about real estate property.
Your mother’s property and possessions will have to go through probate court. This will decide what is done. No one can add themselves to a deed or demand payment for their perceived share
Unless your MOM signed a notarized Grant Deed to add your name onto her house, or she didn't do a Trust for it (or name you as the Trustee), your family is going to have to wait for a Probate Hearing to find out who gets what.
The Probate Court in the state and county where you live will decide who gets what. Someone needs to request a Hearing as well, which means they hire a lawyer. Beware that any of your siblings can hire a cheap lawyer right now, and come in and take over everything. They will run the show and whatever sibling they don't like wont get much.
If I were you, I'd find a Probate lawyer and hire them PRONTO. Plan on spending $1,500-$3,000 for their retainer. Depends on your Mom's house value and if it's paid off or not.
Your mom passed and left a property she owned to all six siblings equally? Do I understand that correctly? And one of the siblings wants to be bought out, isn't interested in part ownership? In the US you can't be forced to own property, the sibling can legally demand to be bought out or force the sale of the property to fund this if the other five can't afford to.
Whose name was the house in before your mom passed? It sounds like she told you she could add your name to the deed but didn't. If she only partly owned the property that does complicate things. Nobody can be putting their name off and on the deed to the property if it's in probate. Is that where you are? Probate will settle who owns the property and what percent.
