- Q. My grandmother wants to buy a property I eventually will inherit and what's the best way to go about the title?
- A: Great question and what a great problem to deal with!
One key component to many Estate Plans is creditor avoidance. Fortunately, there are several alternatives available to both of you, some of which require specific language to be included in the deed. In addition to Estate Planning services, our firm deals with Elder law planning issues and I am concerned that if your grandmother gives you the property, it could affect her eligibility to obtain certain governmental benefits, such as Medicaid.
It is probably appropriate for you and your grandmother to hire a qualified Estate Planning attorney who can point you quickly in the right direction.
- Q. I'm creating a Family Revocable Living Trust.
- A: This is a question that requires additional information. It also deals with the title to real property and should not be done based upon an internet query. It is best to bite the bullet and hire an Estate Planning attorney who can assist you in answering that question.
Best of luck.
