A client wanted to keep the summer cottage in the family, so the children and grandchildren could continue to enjoy it in the future. How do you make sure the expenses like real estate tax, utilities, maintenance and repairs are shared fairly? How do you make sure the use of the cottage is shared fairly and who makes the rules on use of watercraft, firearms, and alcohol? Answers will depend on each family’s circumstances and Mr. Kriger has advised many clients on their family cottages.
