You are asking about "adverse possession". In Pennsylvania, merely "taking care of property next to your property for over 10 years" does not allow you to make any claim for that property.

In Pennsylvania, adverse possession "MUST be open, notorious and hostile for a period not less than 21 years." This means when a person puts up a fence around that property, maintains it as though it were his/hers - cutting the grass, shoveling the snow, [paying the taxes - which may or may not apply] etc., that person is entitled to file for possession of that property through adverse possession for that property.

The 21 years must be continuous: each and every day something must be done to that property. When there is even one day missed doing something to that property, the 21 years begins over again, from the very beginning - from Day 1.

If property is given in a will what happens if there are leans on the property?

If your property "leans", then it will probably fall down in the next big windstorm. If there is a "lien" on your property, it means that a claim against that property is filed with the local governmental office (usually County), stating who is claiming that there is an amount owed, associated with that property. If that property is sold without the lien being satisfied (paid off), then the buyer is responsible for that debt. That's why Title Searches are done prior to buying real estate.

Step grandmother passed away left all to son son passes away leaves all to wife wife passes away leaves all to daughter unclaimed property found in stepgranmothers name can step grandaughter claim?

This depends on who the next rightful heir is. Usually, this is the next of kin, such as a spouse, sibling, etc. If the step granddaughter is the 'legal' next of kin and recognized by the state as such, then yes, they may make the claim. You will be able to determine this by using the claim form from the state in which you are searching. If not, and you still want to make a bit of dough from the claim, you could make an agreement with the next of kin to give you a percentage of the claim. this is totally legal and guarded by state regulations regarding "finders fees".
