Heirs’ Property Education Workshop
March 28 @ 7:30 am – 2:00 pm
UMES Extension will host an Heirs’ Property Education Workshop on March 28. The event will be held from 7:30 a.m.-2 p.m. at the UMES Henson Center Ballroom, with opening remarks expected at 8:30 a.m.
Heirs’ property is family-owned property inherited by multiple generations without the formal legal proceedings necessary to prove ownership. As a result, the heirs lack the clear title necessary to prove their ownership status. This means they may not be able to sell the property, use the property as collateral for financing, or receive USDA benefits for farming activities conducted on the property. It also means they may be at a greater risk of losing the property through a partition action or because they fail to pay their property taxes.
COST: $10 per person, includes breakfast and lunch
REGISTRATION: Pre-registration is required and ends March 22. No walk-ups will be accepted.
