<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond",serif">I have a client who (on his death) wants his house to be listed for sale with a particular realtor. He has good reasons for this. Under typical circumstances I would have him
put this in a written communication to his PR. However, he has chosen a bank as his PR, and so I think it needs to be in his will. Any thoughts on this? Any language suggestions?
