<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">PCs (H & W) with three children. Main asset is the house. Wills to state that all assets go to surviving spouse, then to three children in equal shares. Pretty straightforward.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">PCs want to include a provision in their Wills that once the survivor spouse passes away, one of their three children should be given the opportunity to buy the house
<u class="">at an easily ascertainable price.</u>  They do not want the realtor commission and the appraisal fee. So, in their mind, they see a formula of Zillow estimate (their view of market price) minus 7% (approximate sales commission).  </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I have many problems with this approach and have discussed with them at length the proper ways for the PR to handle that matter when the time comes. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Nonetheless, they still want a clause in the wills that does something of this sort. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Any ideas?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Thanks,</div>
