Laying claim to family home after 15 years

    A question from Australia. My parents died 15 years ago in Wicklow and neither had a will. One brother was living at home at the time and continues to live there still.

    Questions:

    1) I believe that myself and my 2 other brothers still have a right to claim our share of the house, even though that length of time has passed?

    2) Would our share be based on the current value or the value at time of parents death? Note, one brother has done odd maintainence jobs on the house at his own expense, in case thats a factor.

    3) We think the brother at home has had enough free accommodation should buy us out at this stage. If he is not willing, what is our recourse?

    Thanks.
