More details to this question:
My husband and I loaned 210K to my father for the purchase of two rental properties. He has passed we agreed that the income from those properties should continue on to my step mother until her death. She sold the properties without our knowledge and has since passed. Her will does not revert those funds back to us. There was no written contract. My father claimed to have a will but my step mother denied this. Do I have any legal rights?

Yes. You need to file a claim against your stepmother's estate. Has an estate been opened? If not, you could petition to become personal representative of the estate. You need to hire a lawyer for this.
