Dear Son,
Parents often add a child’s name to the title thinking, “I’m securing their future.”
But once their name is added, you have not simply promised them the house later, you have given them a legal interest in it now.
That decision can limit your control, affect the inheritance of your other children and expose the property to problems in your child’s life.
Love your children. Provide for them. But think carefully before giving away control of the roof over your head.
There may be safer ways to achieve your goal. Get proper legal advice before changing the title.
