My de facto partner of 29yrs and I are in the process of separation. We co-own a block of land and are both on the title.
He has told me that he has recently made a will and has named me to inherit his share of land in the case of his death happening before mine.
He has requested that I do the same as he feels that he might be in trouble if I died before him.
My questions are
Would he automatically inherit my share if I was to die first?
If I name him to inherit my share, would that impact me later if I wished to subdivide the land and sell my share (given we are both still living)?
Could there be other reasons for this request during a separation?
Thank you for your time.
