LEGAL: How can I bequeath my house in the will to someone who is not from my family

DOMUS DP Real Estate

To avoid friction, it might be a good idea to name in the will anyone you trust as executor, so that you can be the one who in your day delivers the legacy to the legatee.

I would like to leave a house to the person who takes care of me since, due to an accident, I am disabled. He is a person who is paid and is not familiar, and I do not know if I can leave this specifically so that he avoids discussions later with my daughters.

You can bequeath that house to this person, for which you will have to state it in your will. As you know, a will can be made at any time while you are in full mental faculties, and the valid one is the last, so it would be as simple as granting a new one that would collect this disposition among the rest of your last wills. To avoid friction, it might be a good idea to name in the will anyone you trust as executor, so that you can be the one who in your day delivers the legacy to the legatee.

However, the legacy cannot prejudice the legitimate rights of its heirs. That is, the day of your death determines the composition and value of your inheritance. If, as he says, he has children, two-thirds of them constitute the legitimate one. If the floor of which he speaks is not worth more than one third of the value of the entire relict flow, there will be no problem with the legacy.

In any case, we recommend a consultation with a lawyer you trust because it is certainly a complex issue and, depending on the factual situation, things may or may not be possible and, where appropriate, there are possible alternatives.
