Keeping Land in the Family

Learn more about the new Heirs Property Act in Virginia and what it means for families who have inherited land or share ownership of it.

Have you inherited property? Do you own property in common with family members?

Family-owned land has many social, economic, and conservation benefits. It can be a family’s most valuable asset. However, land owned by multiple family members and generations is more at risk of being lost due to sale or partition.

This webinar will review what heirs property is, how you become an heir, what resources you and your family need to make the best decisions about your land, the basics of the new Uniform Partition of Heirs Property Act and what it means for you and your family.

Speakers:

• Ebonie Alexander, Executive Director of the Black Family Land Trust
• David Gogal, Principal at Blankingship & Keith, P.C.

Webinar information will be emailed to you when you register.

Event partners: Black Family Land Trust, Virginia Eastern Shore Land Trust, The Piedmont Environmental Council, and Virginia United Land Trusts
