My husband is selling a house in Mexico and we have already a signed offer with a buyer who will pay on May 12. The beneficiary of the house is his son. We tried to change it with me as beneficiary but it's going to take months so we did not. Anyway, the question is----the real estate wants my husband to change his will that will specify me as the inheritor of the house in Mexico. We are currently in the US. Is this a common procedure?
If my husband dies before the May 12, is our deal with the buyer considered void...in which case, the son, who is the beneficiary can do whatever he wants to do with the house?
Thanks.
