[WSBAPT] First Right of Refusal on Joint Tenants

[Jennifer Modak]

Hello
The clients (brother and sister) are joint tenants in a primary residence, only the brother resides in the home. They want to record a document that sets out a first right of refusal to purchase the percentage ownership interest if one joint tenant ever wants to sell.

An LLC is not an option since it is used as a primary residence, and they do not prefer a joint venture. Any options for a simple agreement?

Thanks
