We have decided to put LawLab on 'ice' for now. It is still part of our dream and plan. You can still contact us via our website, www.francoisvorster.com. For now we will cancel all the subscribers from our side. We will definately let you know when we will be fully up and running again. Thanks for all the support. ~Francois

Can one make out a will on a property you have inherited while you are still in the process of doing the transfer. Or should the transfer process be first completed to do so. Please advise.

Yesterday I had the privilege to discuss a few important aspects of financial planning and estate planning with Corné Bouwer of Heptagon Capital. He is also very busy on TikTok. The video is below and in the free Course in the Classroom. We discuss: - the difference between life cover that pays to the estate and to beneficiaries - cash issues at death - the importance of pension funds, provident funds, and retirement annuities Have a look and let me know which questions you'd like us to discuss in the next live.

I am an only child and both my parents are deceased. They were married in Community of property. While they were still alive they had a mutual will drawn up that stated if one of them dies then the surviving spouse inherits the property and when the surviving spouse dies then I inherit the property. When my dad died my mom did not transfer the property into her name as she was not financially able to do so. When my mom died I fully inherited the property as well as all the assets in it. I am now in a position where I have to pay the transfer from my dad into my mom's name and then I must still pay it onto my name as well which is a huge amount. I always thought I could just pay one transfer from my dad into my name but was told it cannot be done like that. Please advise as to what my options are in this matter.

I'm hosting Corné Bouwer in a free Live Chat on 26 September @ 13h30. The link is in the calendar. Corné is a financial planner at Heptagon Capital. You most probably have seen him on TikTok as well as CornéFin. Have a look at his videos here: CornéFin. Join the live to ask your questions. We will discuss: - Financial Planning. - Estate Planning - How to pepare your finances for when you pass away. - What types of financial planning must you have in place? I will post the recording in the classroom afterwards for easy reference. See you there.
