My question involves real estate located in the State of: West Virginia.

My aunt wants me to sign a quitclaim deed on "my share" of 88 acres of land. The land is currently in a trust from my late grandparents to their 4 (now adult) children. One of those children, my father, passed away a few years ago and apparently on his deathbed promised my aunt his share of the land. Since he died with no will, his "share" automatically gets passed to his next of kin - me.

My father abandoned my mother & I when I was a small child, and pretty much ran from the child support collectors & my mom never got a dime.

I'm wanting to know what I should ask for, be it an appraisal or something and then some cash, in order for me to sign the quitclaim because I really have no desire to give anything to my father's sister who I've met once when I was 4 and if the land is worth anything to her, then I'd like to give that $ to my mother.

Thanks in advance!!!
