She would like to use a TOD deed to transfer her interest in the home to her daughter on her death, BUT she would also like to specify in the deed that, should her daughter predecease her, the property goes to daughter’s husband. I know that the statute specifies that the gift to a named beneficiary who does not survive the transferor lapses, and will vest in another <u>concurrent</u> beneficiary, but I don’t seen anything one way or the other about a <u>contingent</u> beneficiary. Has anyone done this? Does anyone see a problem with it?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-ligatures:none'>Susan E.
