Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Simple Will & Trust
We are retired legal residents of Fl., own and live in a manufactured home community, but do not own real estate here. We do own farm ground in Ill., which we want to go to our adult children in Illlinois at the time of our death. Do we need a trust in Ill. for the farm, or can the legal description of the land be included in a simple will or trust written in Florida?

Re: Simple Will & Trust
Depending on the size of your estate and its administrative necessities you may or may not need a trust. A will should be drafted in compliance with both FL and IL law.
