Unless you are the sole person to inherit the home after your parent's death, you can most likely be forced out. First, ifsomeone other than you inherits (I.e. regardless if who else inherits, you do not), which could happen if your parent willed the home to say, your brothers, but not you, the new owner can remove a nonowner at will; you would have no right to stay in someone else's home. Even if you are one of several owners (e.g. you and your brothers all inherit), there are different ways during or after the probate/inheritance process that the other owners can force a sale--and if the home is sold, you would have to leave. (When there are multiple owners, if some do not want to physically keep the property, the law has a mechanism to force a sale, after which the proceeds, if any, are divided among the owners.) If doesn't matter if this has been your only home or if you have children; the only way you could be sure of staying is is only you inherit (and there is not mortgage and/or you can pay off the mortgage).
