It depends on whether the last will leaves property "per capita" or "per stirpes". You should really consult with a probate attorney in your area for further advice.

Can my boyfriend claim ownership of the property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
No, the property is still yours. However, he can claim an equitable interest (similar to a lien) on the house since he added value by paying a portion of the mortgage principal. He would have an uphill battle though, since you would presumably claim that it was a gift. BTW, this also applies to capital improvements to the home that he pays for (what he contributed that would enhance the value of the home).

Does a will become invalid if the residence changes states?

Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
No, the will is valid if it was properly executed in the State it originated from. However, you may want to consult an attorney anyway b/c some of your assumptions may be incorrect. For example, Florida has a unique homestead law. There may also be differences in exempt property, executor requirements, etc. Advance directives such as living wills, durable powers of attorney and health surrogates may also be different.
