Should the deed be an Enhanced Life Estate Deed?

Astrid de Parry
Answered by attorney Astrid de Parry
Estate Planning lawyer at Bryant de Parry, P.A.
No, an Enhanced Life Estate Deed will not resolve this “dilemma.” An Enhanced Life Estate Deed would give your mother a life estate in the property, and you a remainder interest. Your interest in the property would vest upon the death of your mother. It may be possible for your mother to execute a Power of Attorney for the purposes of improving the home. You should seek out an attorney who practices in the field of estate planning. He or she can review the trust document and assist you with resolving your issue. Astrid de Parry, P.A.

If the power of attorney expires when my father passed away, who is to sign the quick claim deed to transfer my father’s home ownership and title?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
If the home was in a living trust, then the trustee can sign the deed. If there was no living trust, then your father's estate must pass through probate. The court-appointed administrator of the estate (which could be you, if you ask for the appointment) will have the power to sign a deed in favor of whoever is to receive the property in question. I suggest you contact a probate attorney for assistance in this matter.
