Best Answer

An attorney can help. I wouldn't put his name on the title. Set up a trust instead. You maintain complete control over the condo, not matter what might happen with your son. It may be an extremely unlikely problem, but if your son should become unable to conduct his affairs for whatever reason, and you find that you need to sell the condo, you will be at the mercy of probate court-- they will have to determine whether or not your son's interest in the property will be served by selling it. If you set up a trust, he can readily inherit (without owing capital gains, by the way) and you can still sell if he should become incapacitated. I am not an attorney. I helped my mother with estate planning a few years ago.
