Mother wants to deed her property to her disabled daughter then go into a nursing home. She believes that this will allow the house to be passed to her daughter and she will still be eligible for Medicaid, if needed, before the 5-year lookback period. Is this true? And if so, what problems might this pose for the daughter now and in the future if she wants to quit claim to herself and her husband as joint tenants? Is there a mandatory period the daughter must wait before quit claiming the property to herself and her husband?
