It is never a good idea to leave real estate to a minor. Better to set up a trust in the will for the benefit to the minor grandsons and name an adult as trustee.

Your mother really needs to talk to a good probate and estate attorney. Spending a little on getting this done correctly now will save everyone time, money, and heartache later.
