<p class="MsoNormal">Craig, it’s probably a valid life estate, but most likely only for the specific location on which the mobile home sits. Does it say anything about the life estate tenant’s duties regarding the property (payment of property taxes, upkeep,
etc.)?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Listmates. I have a do it yourself property sale from many years ago that the Grantor deeded the property subject to exceptions contained in “Exhibit B”. Exhibit B among other things has a full copy of the purchase and sale agreement
which contains a hand written sentence saying the Seller gets a life estate in the mobile home he lives in on the property. The property is 20 acres. Sooo… Is this a valid life estate? If so is it the entire 20 acres or just the mobile home and some reasonable
amount or space around it? Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks, Craig <o:p>
