Do I need a will to give my house to relative
I only have a house? Do I need a will? Is a will all that I need to give my house to relative? How do I find a lawyer to right that up?

You can change title to your home and bank accounts to Payable on Death or Transfer on Death.

But you might want to consider that you need other legal documents such as a healthcare power of attorney and a living will (end of life instructions). And you need to name someone to carry those powers. Also, what if you are incapacitated because of stroke or dementia? Maybe a “springing” business power of attorney?
So maybe a quick visit with an estate planning attorney in your state would be a good idea. Ask at your local bank or go to www.Search-Attorneys.com.
