Ask a solicitor: Can we have 'our day in the house'?

Is it possible to transfer the farm while also protecting myself, asks this week's question.

In many cases, the farmer may wish to transfer the family home at the same time as the farm and retain a Right of Residence in the property for his or her lifetime.

Dear Karen,

I would like to transfer the family farm, which has been in my family for generations, to my son, who is farming at home with me.
