The best way to leave a property to someone is through a trust. That way it goes directly to him and bypass the probate process. Also, leave a will.
To do this, clearly identify the asset and to whom it should go upon your death. To name your home in your Will, simply provide the street address. For example, "My home located at 123 Main St I leave to my children, Ann, Sara, and Tom."

When the owner of a house dies and there is a Will, the house will pass to the beneficiary named in the document. Once Probate court has validated the Will, the Executor can assist with transferring the property to the heir. This is typically the simplest way to transfer the home after an owner dies.
For example, a survivorship clause might state "A beneficiary must survive me by 30 days to receive any bequest under this will. If a beneficiary does not survive me by 30 days, their share shall pass as if they predeceased me."
The following are some of the most common assets with beneficiary designations, and therefore, such assets should not be included in your will: Retirement accounts, IRAs, 401(k)s, and pensions. Life insurance or annuity proceeds. Payable-on-death bank accounts.
You have some options: Divide up assets based on their value. Instruct your executor to divide assets equally. Instruct your executor to sell everything and then distribute the proceeds to your beneficiaries equally.
If your language is ambiguous or your intentions are not clear it could lead to instructions not being followed properly or the will being ruled invalid. Ensure you seek professional advice when writing a will, and that all of the proper steps are taken, including having the will witnessed.
To make a bequest, leave written instructions behind, typically in a will. A probate court may need to validate your will for the assets to transfer to their new owner. Assets such as life insurance policies, retirement accounts and trusts have pre-established beneficiaries and can be transferred outside probate court.
Most real estate contracts have a clause which specifies what personal property is included in or excluded from the sale. Sellers and buyers often forget to specify certain items, which leads to arguments at closing.
