No house on the land but a 40x60 pole shed put up in late 2015.
As far as your house & contents..
There’s this thing called a SURVIVORSHIP DEED..
U and your significant other sign a contract & u file it w your county office.. So when 1 or the other passes.. the house and contents are AUTOMATICALLY transferred to the other with NO WAITING ON PROBATE COURT.!!
I went thru this and was afraid I was going to get kicked out of MY HOME.. so I called and asked..
The county official said the probate can take up to a year.. UNLESS U have a survivorship deed..
I yelled. I HAVE 1..(lol) she said then it’s yours and NOBODY can kick u out..
Inheritance is not a gift from one generation to the next. Inheritance is a gift to the government.The whole point is get it done!!! Inheritance is a gift from one generation to the next.
THIS!!^^^^^^Inheritance is not a gift from one generation to the next. Inheritance is a gift to the government.
Set up a trust and cut the government out of the equation.
And another upside of doing that is when the people who missed out find out you can stick a bur under their saddle n die with a grin on your face.Wills and inheritance bring out the absolute worst in some people. Too sad. Maybe the idea of spending all your money or donating it before you pass is the best way to do it.
Still one of my favorite movies!Be like Second Hand Lions(movie) spend it all getting to deaths door then go out in a blaze of glory boots still on!!!
I agree wholeheartedly, and in fact it's best to keep everybody but the Trustee named to manage the trust in the dark, otherwise the arguing starts before the dear departed departs.Spouses!&^%$#! Don't even let them know.
