In this podcast episode we discuss the importance of having a will for homeowners. John Strohmeyer, a licensed attorney, probate and estate issues, emphasizes the significance of having a will or an official document to clarify property ownership and inheritance. We will also address the misconception that wills are only necessary for those with significant assets - highlighting the importance of having a plan in place as soon as you start accumulating belongings and assets.
