Q: My brother and I have a timeshare together in Florida. I would like to take my name off of the deed but would like half
of it if he dies or sells it. Is there a way that I can do this if he agrees to the terms?
A:
In general, your brother and you can quit claim (a type of deed) your share to you. He can put it in his Will that you get the timeshare when he dies. Of course, he can change his mind at any time and change his Will, and he doesn't have to tell you.
Specifically, you should consult a South Carolina real estate attorney for advice. This is not a DIY project.
