Re: real estate law

You (and any other current owner) will have to deed the property to her and you. You're best option would probably be to hold the property as joint tenants with right of survivorship so the property would automatically go to the surviving spouse upon a death.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
