New York law defines a life estate as a form of joint property ownership, where one person retains the use of the property during their lifetime, but the ownership vests in the remaindermen in many cases, parents and their children, respectively.
A life estate deed allows you to transfer property while reserving an interest during your lifetime or during the lifetime of someone else. Once the person who holds the life estate passes away, the Grantee fully owns the property.
A deed with a reserved life estate is used when you wish to both pass your real property to someone upon your death and also protect the property from nursing-home liens. This document may also make it possible for you to live in and maintain control of the property until your death.
Under New York law, the creation of a life estate involves drafting a deed that explicitly outlines the arrangement. The deed must specifically identify the life tenant and the remainderman. Once the deed is executed and recorded, the life tenant gains immediate rights to use and enjoy the property.
