[WSBAPT] Will Restriction on Heirs buying house

[Eric Nelsen]

Yes, probably. But TEDRA gets around almost anything, if all the interested parties are in agreement.

Sincerely,

Wouldn't a TEDRA get around any such restriction?

I think it would work. It in essence restricts the power of the PR to sell the property, by specifying that it can only be sold to someone other than an heir. The heirs have no inherent right to inherit or to purchase the house.

In its plainest form the clause could be evaded by, say, an heir forming an LLC and using the LLC to purchase the property. But the clause could be elaborated sufficiently to prevent that as well.

I have a client who asked me if I could put a provision into his will that none of his children could buy his home from the estate after he passes away. (He wants his children to share equally in the estate, but for a personal reason, doesn't want any of them to own the house.) Off the top of my head, it seems like such a provision would be unenforceable. Any thoughts?
