Yes, as long as it is sold at a fair market value. If it is sold for a fraction of value, the estate may be able to pull it back into the estate as a gift.

Is there an advantage to putting your children on the deed to your home?

There is a distinct disadvantage to adding minor children to the title to your property.If you wanted to mortgage or sell the property an interested party must petition to be appointed the child's Legal Guardian and the guardian must request a license to sell the child's interest in the real estate. The court will also appoint a Guardian ad Litem who will review the matter and report back to the court whether the sale is in the child's best interest. If the report is favorable, the court will issue a license to sell and make some provision for the proceeds to be placed in an account in trust for the child. The proceeds from the sale belong to the child. Also, the associated legal costs can be expensive.If the property remains in the child's name, when they reach the age of majority they may not want to transfer their interest to you if you decide to sell the property. They will be entitled to their share of the proceeds.If you will not need to sell or finance the property one advantage is that with the proper titling of the property it would pass directly to them in the event of your death, avoiding the expense of probate. However, the property would be available to their creditors. See the link provided below for a discussion on various tenancies.You should speak to an attorney before making any changes.

Can you sell a property before a lien is put on it?

That depends on the situation and state laws. In most states a conveyance of property to avoid creditors is considered a fraudulent and can be voided by a court order. In that case the property is usually transferred to a child, friend or family member for nominal consideration. In other cases if an owner manages to sell the property for fair market value to an innocent third party before any liens are recorded the creditor may be out of luck. You should consult with an attorney who can review your particular situation.


Why were white men not made to pay child support to children they fathered by slave women and why were they not prosecuted for rape especially of children?

The reason is that in the days of slavery, slaves were considered property. They had no legal rights nor existence under the law. The owner could do anything they wanted with their slaves. They could work them to death, beat them to death, rape them and sell their children. Slaves were listed in property in tax records and wills.The reason is that in the days of slavery, slaves were considered property. They had no legal rights nor existence under the law.

What happens when trust states a parents home on one child's property will be left to that child after his sibling is given an amount of money but the first child sells the property before parent dies?

If the trust clearly states that the property will be left to one child, then the first child has the legal right to sell the property as the owner. It is important to review the trust documents and consult with a legal professional to determine if any provisions or conditions were violated by selling the property before the parent's passing.
