Whitney Houston's Family Sues for Singer's Belongings Locked Inside Sold Mansion

Estate says real estate company won't let family retrieve piano, valuable paintings, according to report.

While her Mendham, New Jersey home was sold earlier this year, Whitney Houston’s estate is now suing the company that commissioned the sale for belongings reportedly owned by the singer that are still locked inside the home.

According to The Daily Mail, Houston’s estate claims CPMG Mendham, the company that made the sale on the family’s behalf, has changed the door locks and chained the front gate. Houston’s sister-in-law, Marion, says she has been denied requests to enter the home, the report said.

A baby grand piano, jukebox, paintings, home furnishings and other items are being sought by the estate, the report said.
