One smart way to preserve generational wealth is through family estate planning. That is where the Philadelphia Department of Records comes into the picture. The city Records Department will present the Build It. Protect It. Pass It. estate-planning workshop. Philadelphia homeowners can learn about wills, tangled titles, and how to protect their homes. Philadelphia has more than 10,000 tangled title properties where ownership is unclear because deeds were not properly transferred to heirs. Many of these dwellings are in communities that have had little access to formal legal and financial systems. Drafting up an official will can prevent issues.
Free but pre-register; 11 a.m. EST to 1 p.m. EST. Philadelphia City Archives, 548 Spring Garden St. Email: dthomas@ahcopa.org or https://www.facebook.com/people/City-of-Philadelphia-Department-of-Records/100069125503453/
